were did hummingbirds originally come from
April
There are many species of hummingbirds that remain in Louisiana year round. They are the Rufous hummingbird, Black-chinned , Buff-bellied, Allen's, Broad-tailed, Calliope, Blue-throated,Broad-billed, Green-eared and Magnificent. The Ruby-throated hummingbird also resides in Louisiana. However, it is a seasonal resident arriving in early to mid-March. It generally starts to migrate south in August. Many people continue to see them until October.
Hummingbirds come in all colors and they are about 2-3 inches high.
well THE PARENTS CAN REPORT IT but in louisiana you wont be forced to come back you can legally move out at 17.
Hummingbirds typically return from their winter migration to North America in the springtime, usually around March or April. The exact timing may vary depending on the species and where they wintered.
When I go outside on my back deck, the hummingbirds come over to me and then they leave. They will fly by me very fast and then zoom off to a tree. This happens everytime I go out on my deck. Is this unusual?
Not really. Most likely when the orioles come the hummingbirds will fly away. However, when the oriole leaves the hummingbirds will return again. If the hummingbirds do not return put up a oriole feeder that should keep it away from the hummingbird feeder.
Hummingbirds come in a wide range of colors including bright reds, blues, greens, purples, and even iridescent hues. Some species also exhibit unique color patterns like speckles, stripes, or metallic sheens.
No they come from an egg, the nest is about the size of a penny, that can fit about three eggs inside it.
Ruby throated hummingbirds often migrate back to the same spot year after year, sometimes arriving at their nesting area on the same day as previous years. Their lifespan is normally 3-4 years although one hummingbird was banded and recorded to live at least 9 years.
it depends on if they can get a gig there. I know they won't for their winter tour but I will ask them and get back to this.
