• Facts• Humming birds

Habitat and location

Habitat: It appears that ruby throats are most common at areas where

wooded edges are near water.

They like flowers include jewelweed and cardinal lobelia, both wetland plants.

They feed not only on flower nectar, but also on insects and small spiders they pluck from flowers or catch in mid-air.

They are also easily attracted to artificial feeders and will use many garden flowers as

a source of nectar and insects. 

Diet

Most Interesting fact

The male ruby throated hummingbird dose indeed have a srikik red throat though the female of the species dose note you would

have to look quickly to see either however as these speedy little birds can beat their wings 53

times a second and fly in an airobobat
