like bees they go over to flowers to get some honey (i think that's what bees do) and it sticks onto them as they pass flower to flower doing you know what to the female plant and then making seeds. so humming birds are just like bees!
It's helpful not only to the flower, but to the environment. When hummingbirds visit flowers, they are not only feeding on the nectar, they pollinate the flowers which in turn allows plant to produce fruits or seeds.
Hummingbirds will visit red flowers and yellow flowers with the same frequency.
Hummingbirds fly from flower to flower, sticking their beaks into the center to take sips of nectar. While sipping nectar, hummingbirds are inadvertently transporting pollen grains from previously sipped flowers. The process results in the cross pollination of different flowers, through the help of the hummingbird. Basically: Hummingbirds help flowers pollinate each other, which allows flowers to reproduce.
Nectar from flowers.
Hummingbirds are attracted to bright colors like red, orange, and pink when seeking nectar from flowers.
Hummingbirds prefer red flowers because they have a higher concentration of nectar, which is their main food source. The color red is also easier for hummingbirds to see and helps them locate flowers more quickly.
Hummingbirds have no sense for scent and flowers attract them by their colors.
Roses do not typically attract hummingbirds to gardens. Hummingbirds are more attracted to brightly colored flowers that produce nectar, such as trumpet-shaped flowers like honeysuckle or bee balm.
