Hummingbirds are lovely birds and can draw a ton of interest to your yard. I know that I love being able to watch this tiny little bird come zooming through my yard as they travel from flower to flower pollinating them all. For many people they do not even realize the benefits that are available from having this bird in their backyard.
The first great benefit of having this type of bird in your backyard is that they will be able to pollinate the flowers that other birds and insects are not able to reach down into. This would be the flowers that have long stem going down into the flowers pollen area. Which is nice because if your home is like mine those flowers will be located close to your home and you do not really want that many bees and other insects close to your house.
The second great benefit of hummingbirds is that they are a very beautiful bird that you can look at and watch for the entire time that they are around your yard without getting bored of them. I know that for some people they might think that watching a bird is fairly boring, but then you might not have seen a hummingbird. A humming bird when you think about how fast the wings have to beat and how quick they dart from flower to flower or feeder to feeder without ever landing is just amazing. For me I would never be able to do that let alone be able to keep up with that fast pace of lifestyle because the energy that the bird uses has to be tremendous.
