Male hummingbirds have a territory and feeders within that territory belong to that male. Males will determine who gets to use the feeder. The male will "attack" any others by simply fly toward them and chasing them away and not let them return.
Hummingbirds catch their food, mostly nectar from flowers, by hovering in front of the flower and using their long, specialized beaks and tongues to extract the nectar. They also catch insects in mid-air using their agility and speed to snatch them out of the air.
No, hummingbirds do not hibernate. Instead, they go into a state of torpor during the night or when food is scarce to conserve energy. Torpor is a short-term, deep sleep that allows hummingbirds to reduce their metabolic rate and survive periods of cold or food scarcity.
It is possible to see hummingbirds in November, depending on your geographic location. In some regions, certain species of hummingbirds may stick around later in the year before migrating south. Providing a consistent food source, such as a feeder with fresh nectar, can attract hummingbirds even in late fall.
they hunt
Lynx hunt their food.
No. Grass is wind-pollinated and does not produce nectar, the food for hummingbirds.
food is in the nectar
Yes, hummingbirds land when they perch. After a meal of nectar, a hummingbird will perch. Hummingbirds store their food in a pouch at the base of their throat. This pouch is called a crop. While they are perching this food is moving from the crop to the stomach for digestion. It only takes hummingbirds about 10 minutes to digest their food. Hummingbirds do not walk or hop like other birds though.

Hummingbirds fly very fast and have few predators, but they are sometimes snatched and eaten by eyelash vipers, praying mantis and bird-eating spiders (tarantulas).
Yes some can. Hummingbirds do for example.
No, they did not hunt for food they only grew food and traded for food.
Hummingbirds do not hibernate. Instead, they enter a state of torpor, which is a deep sleep that helps them conserve energy when food is scarce. The torpor can lower their metabolism significantly to survive cold nights or times when flowers are scarce.
penguins hunt for there food in the ocean
