Allen's Hummingbird Babies from Hatching to Fledging the Nest

[@janedoe1771]

The look on the remaining one's face in the moment their sibling took off... hilarious ❤

[@JohnMichaelson]

I can't help wondering every time I watch hummingbird parents feeding the small babies how the mother isn't piercing their gullets! Such precision.

[@KateDunno]

John Michaelson, I have also wondered that same thing. Her beak beak looks to be longer than the newborn babies are.

I can't tell you how much I LOVE that I found your channel. I sit and watch hummingbirds all day on the covered front porch. Funny... I also have a few strings of tiny Christmas lites all around the porch. I've always loved hummingbirds!! My great uncle years ago was a saddle maker. I had waited my entire growing years to finally have one made. Only request I had was I wanted hummingbirds tooled on it. In the near 65 yrs of making saddles, this was his first hummingbirds request. I actually drew a picture of one in flight. That's what he put on my saddle. There are 15 (I think) on it. I'm so proud of him for doing this for me. Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe!! ♡♡♡

Your video made me tear up. Only the happiest tears ever! Beautiful humming birds. ♡

[@lcarter8473]

thank you for the videos they were amazing I had hummingbirds at my place up in Colorado several of them I was fortunate enough to live up at the top of the mountains where we had lots of berry bushes and in the spring the had lots of beautiful white flowers and we had lots of hummingbirds and I would watch the babies come up to the feeders with their parents I just love hummingbirds one time one flu inside my house and was trapped and then when I went over there to help it it was exhausted from trying to fly back through the window it just landed in my hand and laid still and I walked outside and stuck my hand up in the air and it just sat there for a few more seconds and flew off

[@alyssapeters6271]

Thank you! Wow, this made me so nervous! At the edge of my seat! Wishing these two the best!

[@Krista2882]

Aww, I miss Emerald. I still think of her often. I got very attached to her.

[@GabeH26]

They all fit in that small nest!!! How interesting. Love the video.

[@houliemon1315]

They are pretty good at sword swallowing also ! Man she drove that beak to the hilt feeding them !

[@HummingbirdSpot]

Seriously!

[@mariashaffer-gordon3561]

That nest was really well-made to have been able to hold two fledglings! Once Ruby left, it seemed just the right size for Sapphire.

[@angelmartin7310]

They make stretchy nests, it's amazing

[@lindaroper2654]

It's amazing the mother knows how far to put that long beak in their mouth without hurting them. They sure like to eat lol

What a great mother!

This is amazing. I couldn’t believe how far the beak went down into the babies. I guess straight to their stomachs.

I am here because I recently discover a hummingbird nest in my back yard. I think they like those lights because she also positioned her nest in the lights that have in the back yard. Her two eggs are the size of a tick-tack. I blessed to have this hummingbird in my back yard! I never seen such a cute thing.

I watched this with my classroom. The kids were horrified and saddened to experience Crimson's demise. What a beneficial experience they've had this spring in watching. Thanks! :)

[@deniseroe5891]

Thanks for posting this. We had hummingbirds when we lived in Arlington, we now are in open ranch land and I wasn’t sure we would have then here in Bellevue. I had some fake flowers and I saw they were trying to feed off them, so ai bought a feeder and now the hummingbirds come say night to be during their feeding

[@georgiehughes4858]

Emerald’s nest building materials seem very similar to the hummingbird nests built in my yard in Panorama City, Calif. I had many in our garden over the years… made from soft spider webs with white paint chips reinforcing the outside. Our hummers remodeled & added on over the years so the nests became long & full. I loved them so very much & miss that whole delightful part of my life.

[@connietowler3725]

This was so interesting. It is Aug. 17, 2022, and I have 4 to 5 Hummingbirds out here. Just a drinking, I am thinking they are getting ready to leave soon, lower Michigan 😥 Sad day when I don't see them, I spend a lot of time in my gardens, and they are so much fun to watch and hear. Thank you

[@georgia19801]

[@TracyAllenPreplanner]

Awwww🥰 I am so humbled as I watch this video. Nature is so amazing. I just saw a hummingbird outside of my window and decided to look for a video about “baby hummingbirds“. The way the mother feeds the babies looks so dangerous but she knows what she’s doing. Beautiful🤩💞

What a privilege it is to be able to see their little journey thru this part of life. I really enjoyed watching this. I have 12 hummingbird feeders on my back fence. I could watch them for hours. Unfortunately my work schedule only allows enough time for a quick cup of coffee and a few minutes to watch my feeders. I do enjoy watching them. They are my favorite part of the day.

It was such a magical experience for our whole family! ❤️

[@phyllisanngodfrey6137]

We have hosted hummers for the last 30 years. They must nest in our mature trees. My husband logs their return every year. In 2020, we saw the first one on April 24th. Our grandkids were also avid watchers. As they watched them chasing each other off of our feeder, they observed, “They aren’t very good at sharing are they?”😂 We have hosted many gatherings on our covered deck with hummers flying in and out in their evening feeding frenzies. They occasionally get stuck in our skylights. We gently pull them down and out with a small bamboo rake. They are almost like free range pets now. We love them.

[@marciajohnson6035]

yes its so funny how they wont eat at the same time usually , they are very territorial and the Only ones I have found that are more easy going here is Calliope especially the female, she will just sit there a while and other birds get tired of waiting there turn and come sit and drink also.
