  • A beautiful documentary which follows mama and two baby Allen's hummingbirds from birth to fledging. Filmed in Los Angeles, California. High Definition.
    PLEASE READ FURTHER TO LEARN CORRECTED INFORMATION ABOUT THE BIRDS. I HAVE UPLOADED A NEW VERSION OF THIS VIDEO WHICH IS CORRECTS THESE ERRORS AND ADDS EVEN MORE EDUCATIONAL INFORMATION. YOU MAY VIEW THIS NEW VERSION AT : • Hummingbird Babies Bir...
    AND PLEASE NOTE: Hummingbirds are federally protected wildlife. Do not attempt to rescue or interfere with a hummingbird without first contacting your local Hummingbird Rescue for information. All filming of this video was done only after being in contact with licensed Hummingbird Rescue experts for guidance. It has, still, been brought to my attention through some comments that I should not have filmed the birds that close. Please take what I have been advised and do not film birds close up unless you have a very long lens or a web cam. I apologize to the bird lovers I have upset by this ignorance on my part. I can be contacted at sheri@sheriwatson.com. ADDITIONAL NOTE: I inadvertently passed on incorrect information in this video. The "squirt" from the beak of the babies is actually their tongue. Also, the woman I spoke to from the hummingbird rescue referred to the baby's "hair" and I say that several times in the video. I have been otherwise informed that the "hair" should be called "feathers." I also failed to mention that the nests are often secured using spider webs. And, it turns out the first bird to leave the nest is the male, not the female. All of this information is corrected and offered in the updated version of the film which you can find at: • Hummingbird Babies Bir... Please view and share with your friends and social media. Thank you.

    In the mid 1980s. I was privileged to stay a few days with a priest's old sister in a stone cottage that she built by hand near a lake. There were hummingbirds visiting all the time. Of course, I did not have zoom lens to take proper photos but those images remain in my heart.

      with respect, how can you measure the comfort level of birds who are trapped in a nest and who mama likely taught (or was actively communicating to them during the intrusions) to be silent near what they had to experience as a giant predator? You cannot measure their vital signs that would indicate stress. Do please note the author's added comments re: her benevolent ignorance about being intrusive. If we truly wish to help and promote wildlife, we have to resist anthropomophizing them by assuming that they're ok with our intrusions just because they show distress differently than Homo sapiens. Thank you for considering my comments.

    Sheri, your honesty about what you learned from filming this is admirable. We particularly appreciated your graciousness toward bird lovers that were unhappy. You didn't film it out of malicious intent so hopefully those who were 'offended' will realize that. If not, that's their issue. This was beautifully filmed and we especially liked the commentary, even if inaccurate in places. I hope you do more because you clearly have a gift. Hummingbirds are difficult to see that closely so this provided a wonderful opportunity to follow their growth. A real blessing! Thank you!

    I saves a hummingbird from my cat once . I happen to go out back rigjt in time . My cat had just caught it one second before I noticed the bird was in her mouth and I stomped my foot down as hard as I could yelling at the same time and startling my cat she dropped the humming bird . So I picked it up into my hands and the bird had latched both claws/feet hold its long beak . Really wierd. So I carefully peeled off each claw from its beak and was checking it out close didn't appear to be injured at all just in shock and really scared so I gently put my hands up and down saying to the hummingbird go little guy go go and next thing I know it took off and flew away .. so awesome. . For me that was a real treat that I got to hold a hummingbird in the palm of my hands as it flew way saving it .. that's somthing that not very many people get to experience in there lifetime .. . It will never happen again.in my lifetime so I was pretty happy .. Anyway just thought I would share that with you ...Sorry if I was rambling on there a bit ..

      So glad you were able to save the little guy. My wife saved a pair of hummers once. They were a pair of Anna's hummers--a male and a female. They flew into a window, and fell to the ground. My wife thought they were dead. She picked them up, and started stroking their backs with her finger, VERY gently. They seemed to recover fairly quickly. The female took off first, followed by the male a couple minutes later.

    • @mizzoktober1
      @mizzoktober1 6 років тому +4

      Cat's saliva is deadly to hummingbirds so regardless if it looked fine and flew away it most likely did not live. The right thing to do would have been to contact your local bird sanctuary to have it treated. I am not trying to be a downer but I do feel the need to let people know so maybe the next little birdie will live.

  • @ShellyCline
    @ShellyCline 10 років тому +16

    Wow Those baby hummingbirds really trusted you too. At around 6:00 the second one to Fledge preened it's self in front of you. When a bird preens itself in your presence that is the ultimate sign of trust and being at ease. :-)

    • @SheriWatson724
      @SheriWatson724  10 років тому +2

      Wow! That is so cool. I never knew this. That's amazing!! Unfortunately, I had turned the camera off because the bird had been hovering there for awhile, in front of me, seemingly not doing anything, and just as I turned it off, it flew away, so I was unable to actually capture it's first flight, on film. But I was there, and saw it. ;-) How do you know this about the bird preening in front of you?

    • @ShellyCline
      @ShellyCline 10 років тому +4

      I've had many different kinds of pet birds for many years. I learned this about preening through my research that I did in order take good care of my pet birds. Also I'm forever a "student" of wild birds outside. Now you may see wild birds outside that do preening but you will never see a wild bird preen itself when it's just inches away from you. Not unless it trusts you completely, which rarely happens. If a wild bird ends up too close to a human being you will notice just about everything in its body language EXCEPT for preening :-). They may squawk and flap their wings and try to get away, they may stiffen up like a board, but they certainly don't relax and preen. But, these little guys had been seeing you probably daily for their entire short lives. So they knew you meant them zero harm. They trusted you completely. :-)

    • @cupcakesz88
      @cupcakesz88 5 років тому

      Not trying to be a nay sayer but this simply is not true. Birds instinctively preen...and do so quite often. Most of a birds day is consumed with foraging,preening,&sleeping..most of the time in that exact order. So if you spend enough time around a bird,they will preen,whether the trust is there or not. I'm talking only in terms of birds that don't have the choice of fleeing..like a [caged] pet bird or like these lil tiny flappers that didnt really have the option to go anywhere as they [obviously] couldn't fly yet.

      ​@William Sheppard Hello William. That is nice that you like the animals! Thank you for viewing my video. I inadvertently made some errors in information which I detail in the description below this video. I decided to upload an updated version which corrects these errors and gives even more educational information, which I originally only provided to school teachers. If you care to watch it you can at ua-cam.com/video/91EQzBgudos/v-deo.html Also please enjoy some of my other films on my channel. I especially like the one about the kite that wants to fly! ua-cam.com/video/A9qRIIZmyzs/v-deo.html Thank your for your support! Regards, Sheri

    Love the mini documentary on the hummingbirds. You rarely get to see this kind of detail in real life. I had no idea about their nesting life & have only seen one a few times in my 70 years!! So excellent!! Thank you for this very special peek into the very tiny world of the hummingbird!! 😊👏👏💖

      Hello Zue. Thank you! I am so pleased you enjoyed my film, as it is my first and I had no idea I'd be making a film when I began photographing the birds. Please read the description below the video to learn corrected information about the birds I learned since making the film. Also, please visit my channel and view some of my other films. I especially like the ones about the kite that wants to fly and the fireflies. ua-cam.com/users/SheriWatson724 Kind regards, Sheri
