Hungry hummingbirds begin staking<br />
out territory<br />
Hummingbirds return in force in May through June,<br />
looking for nectar from flowers and a free handout from<br />
neighborhood feeders.<br />
Of the over 320 species of hummingbirds, only 26 are<br />
found north of Mexico. After flying across the Gulf, they<br />
migrate 20 miles per day. Their wings flutter 80 times per<br />
second, but not in flaps; in a figure eight, which enables<br />
them to fly backwards and to hover.<br />
Migrating birds cover thousands of miles in their annual<br />
travels and have amazing navigational skills, including by<br />
the stars, sensing changes in the earth’s magnetic field, and<br />
even by smell.<br />
Even though their brains are the size of a grain of rice,<br />
hummingbirds have enough gray<br />
matter to know where they nested<br />
the year before. Many return to the<br />
same nesting areas, and even the<br />
same feeders, on their trip across<br />
country.<br />
People may start seeing traveling<br />
birds as early as March. These are<br />
usually the males on their way to<br />
stake out mating territory. During<br />
these early weeks, males will actually<br />
feed from a feeder at night if the area<br />
is well lit.<br />
