Best Answer

While the sounds of hummingbirds are not exactly considered music, they definitely have a language all of their own. It would be more appropriate to call them chirps then it would be to call it music. However, by listening and learning what the hummingbirds are saying, you can tell what they are doing without looking directly at them.

No. Not unless the butterfly is close to them and it is bigger than them. There are some hummingbirds though that will eat butterflies in some ocassions.
