Were does hummingbirds find there food?
Hummingbirds live on the edge of survival have an extremely fast metabolism and need all day long to stay alive. They eat the nectar from flowers that have co-evolved with them and from the hummingbird feeders we supply. Hummingbirds have no sense of smell but very keen vision are attracted to brightly colored flowers because these are the flowers that have co-evolved with them and have the high nectar they need. Also, hummingbird feeders are usually red to attract them as they travel on their migrations. People also hang red ribbons on their feeders to initially attract the birds.

Yes, hummingbirds have co-evolved with many flowers. These flowers provide the hummingbirds with nectar. When the hummingbirds access the nectar some pollen falls on their head and wings. So when they move to another flower, the pollen is transferred. So many flowers are dependent on the hummingbird for pollination. Hummingbirds also eat a lot of insects for protein. These insects might stand a chance to overpopulate the environment with the hummingbird. The hummingbird has a very important role in our ecology. Let's not forget the beauty they provide for us to watch.
