Videos and info about where do hummingbirds sleep
Hummingbirds will find a favorite perching spot, where they feel safe, to sleep. Usually in a bush or tree, where they will perch on a branch. They especially like to use thick trees or bushes, such as a fur tree, because these will provide protection from the elements while the hummingbird sleeps.
If the hummingbird is a female hummingbird that has young babies that are still too young to take care of themselves, she will sleep on the nest.
Sometimes when sleeping perched on a branch, the hummingbird will loosen it’s grip slightly, which causes it to turn upside down on the branch. These upside down birds are sometimes mistaken for dead birds because of their upside down position. When found in this state they may not even respond to your touch. They should just be left alone until they return to their normal state on their own, usually when the sun comes up and warms their bodies. It may take as much as an hour for the hummingbirds to fully recover from this hibernation like state called torpor.

I you want the best hummingbird feeder, that’s easy to clean and will protect your nectar from bees, wasps, ants and other crawling insects, check out the feeder below!
Aspects 12 ounce Hummzinger Ultra Hummingbird Feeder With Nectar Guard
It’s inexpensive and has an ant moat to keep out ants and several other great features that makes it well worth the price.
The Aspects Hummzinger Ultra Hummingbird Feeder has patented Nectar guard tips which are flexible membranes attached to the feed ports that prohibit entry from flying insects, but allow Hummingbirds to feed as usual. Nectar Guard tips easily slide onto the feeding ports on the underside of the feeder cover. The flexible membrane in the center of each tip easily opens when hummingbirds insert their beaks to feed and close up tight when beaks are removed. Nectar Guard tips create a barrier flying insects can’t penetrate.
The Humzinger hummingbird feeder also has a built in ant moat that will stop crawling insects from getting to the nectar. It also has raised flower ports that divert rain. If rain water gets into your feeder, it will dilute the sugar concentration and the weak nectar will not be as attractive to the hummingbirds.
This mid-size hummingbird nectar feeder has a 12 oz. capacity and can be hung or post mounted with hardware provided. It has four feeding ports for hummingbirds and is made of unbreakable polycarbonate.
