Hummingbirds can typically fly for about 20 minutes to an hour without eating, depending on their activity level and energy expenditure. During periods of intense activity, such as mating displays or territorial fights, they may need to refuel more frequently. To sustain their high metabolism, they consume nectar and insects regularly throughout the day.
