These 30 Hummingbirds Just Had An Epic Pool Party

Although hummingbirds are known to be territorial and prone to fighting with each other, photographer wildwingsla managed to capture the most amazing thing – thirty hummingbirds peacefully enjoying a bath ritual together.

Yup, we see them just chilling and hanging around in what appears to be a luxurious bubbling bath. The footage was shared with the following caption: “A record 30 hummingbirds bathe together at one time during this morning’s wash! You’d never know they will be harassing each other in five minutes’ time…”

I mean, if these thirty folks could get along, at least for 5 minutes, this is surely a great lesson for us humans – a lesson in tolerance and coexistence.

Wouldn’t it be great if the whole world could be as peaceful as these hummingbirds? Next time you feel stressed at work, you know which video to watch.

I bet it was really hot out and they sweeties were not fighting because they all were just appreciating the cold water. :)

Adorable, they are buzzing around just like over-sized bumble bees!

I think most humans can get along for longer than 5 minutes. :-/

Any shallow container will do. You have to add rocks for them to sit on that are slightly out of the water. These give them places to sit and a visual cue that it's a safe place to land. Solar powered pumps are relatively cheap, too. That's enough to provide a bit of a waterfall and some bubbles. I have a still birdbath and it's full every day. The cardinals come early in the morning, followed by the robins, and in the afternoons, butterflies and bees drink there.
