17. Special Needs Hummingbird Plus Close Up Tongue Clips
10 months ago
Hummingbirds have forked tongues and these clips show the tongue in extremely close up clips. The special needs hummingbird has a deformed bill and the tongue doesn't work correctly but he survived all summer around my house with this special feeder. Go full-screen and enjoy something you may not have seen close up and in HD

Russ Thompson 9 months ago I hope so. It would be great to know he survived the migration to and from Central America.

Russ Thompson 9 months ago Thanks for the comment and that is great news - hummingbirds can always use another person that will provide food for them.

Russ Thompson 9 months ago This footage of hummingbird tongues is proof of the translucent-forked tongue and how it is used in eating. I get a lot of comments stating "I didn't know hummingbirds had forked tongues."

Sunny Thaper 11 days ago Wow, that was way awesome! With as fast as they move, how did you even find out that you needed to build this special feeder in the first place? -
Russ Thompson 11 days ago He was around all summer and I saw his deforminty as I was taken photos/videos upclose and all I had to do was remove the flower from the end of the tube & make a perch from the feeder hanging wire. It made life easier for him while he was here.
