Commercial "hummingbird nectar" is essentially sugar water, with possibly some dye and flavoring/scent added. It shouldn't have any noticeable effect on a human, or at least no more effect than an equivalent amount of non-Diet Soda would.

No, a hummingbird is not a scavenger. Hummingbirds primarily feed on nectar from flowers, which provides them with the energy they need to sustain their high metabolism.

Their feeding habits are more aligned with pollination and foraging rather than scavenging.
