Each September hummingbirds swarm on my feeders, fatten up and then take off from Lake Jackson, Texas across the Gulf of Mexico on their non stop flight into Mexico and beyond for the winter. The hummingbirds were mainly Ruby-Throated hummers with a few Black-Chinned Hummers. The wings of a hummingbird beat at approximately 78 strokes per second, and during courtship may beat up to 200 times per second. Hummingbirds obtain energy from nectar and insects. They digest 100% of the sugar in the nectar, and they get proteins, fats, and minerals from insects. The migrating Hummingbirds eliminated the mosquitoes in my yard. They earned their keep in sugar cost this year.

This is my first time putting up feeders. I have 2 up, and today my number of birds jumped up to about 10. It would be awsome to see something like this in my back yard!!

Love your video! If you put up more feeders it's even more FUN to watch. We have 7 feeders up now and they have more of a chance to drink and a little less fighting with each other.
