Thanks for the reply. I guess it gets too hot for them to stick around this far south ( Miami Dade Co.) Anyway I loved your video. Next time I go to Castellow Hammocks I’ll try to video some to share with you.
@jofly17 Thanks for the compliment. I am fortunate to have friends who take beautiful photographs and are generous and share them with me. My videos focus on Florida and more specifically Kissimmee in Osceola County the Central Florida area.
Ruby-throated and Rufous Hummingbirds are residents. Although many migrate further south for winter. The Black-chinned is a Western Hummingbird, so it would be my understanding the siting would be on or around a migration or an escapee from a zoo.
Beautiful video with great information on the plants which is very important. Thank you. What about the black chinned, I read they fly in sometimes as well. PS. They are not really natives right?
Glad you found it informative.
There are already so many videos of these precious little gems feeding on sugar water feeders. They need healthy natural food. The man-made feeders are okay to supplement their natural diet..
Yes, for the birder on the quest to see hummingbirds, there are other places with greater hummingbird diversity.
Close to completion of my next Video, Bald Eagles.
Many thanks for your comments!
Sandie, I actually learned more than I expected. This was not only beautiful but very informative. I didn’t realize there were only two types of hummingbirds native to Florida, as it would seem like an ideal environment (though I’ve never visited there myself).
I love the music, which was very appropriate to the vid.
Great job!

Thank you for your comment.
I would love to film with a video camera. Mine is not digital though. Cheap cameras and photographing birds are not a good mix. I have an awesome pair of binocs!
Working on a Bald Eagle Video now.
Very nice video. Looking forward to seeing some of the marvelous creatures filmed with a video camera if you get a chance to post some more videos in the future.
@ugokwoli Thanks ugo! I see so many hummingbird feeders and realize everyone loves those exquisite little gems.
The natural plants which attract them in nature are so much easier to maintain than a hummingbird feeder. Not to mention the natural diet is healthier for them. Plus properly landscaped plants will add value to our homes, both financially and emotionally.
Sandie, this is more than cool! There’s nothing more to perfect…you got it!!
The natural habitats is a wonderful sight to behold. I’ll like to know more about what is driving you! Touch base.
@peterholmes1965 Thanks so much for taking your time and leaving a comment! I’ll be improving my tech skills and expect the next one to be better.
Nicely done Sandy .. loads of practical and interesting information, loved the music and you took some of the photos aswell as the research .. Well Done !
