Cool. Hummingbirds are great. I work on an oil drilling ship in the gulf as chief mate. One day after a big norther I found a hummingbird in the wheelhous. He got blown 60 miles offshore. Well he got tame enough to sit on your finger and we would feed him sugar water in a bottlecap. We went to port about 2 weeks later and let him free. He was so cool. The whole crew adopted him. And friendly.

Hummingbirds are very friendly and personable -- and cheeky! We have one who will come and fuss in my face when the hummingbird feeder is empty. "The service here is deplorable! I shall inform the management!"

My daughter was in Costa Rica on a biology internship and the place was infested with hummers -- lots of different species that you don't see in the U.S. She took some video of the students playing with the hummers, the darn things would come and perch on their fingers and sit on their heads, fussing and fluttering all the time.
