Have you ever heard of people eating Hummingbird?

I'm drinkin my coffee and watching 2 Hummingbirds trying to claim dominance over the feeder, quite amusing :)

I haven't heard of it, but why not? People pay good money to eat snails and raw fish eggs. Go for it. I got a fiver that says they taste like chicken.

Any good chef will tell you you need to beat your meat if you want it to be tender.

August 8th!!!! You don't happen to be going do you??
Report as
lolz no, I was going to but now I'm expecting to have a baby girl later this month so I gotta stay here with baby momma and the kid lol I take it you are though
Report as
I can't LEGALLY go, but my Probation Officer seemed to sort of give me a "free pass" b-cuz he told me to come in and see him on the 22nd, instead of on the 8th like I was supposed to. I also don't have a license at the moment so that puts a damper on things. Hurts my heart Bro, there is nothing I would rather do.

No, and if you find them amusing why in the world are you thinking about eating them? Puppies are amusing too....can't even finish sentence.

Oh yum pupies!

Why not think about it? I try not to limit the things my mind can think about. I've thought about eating dog as well......will I?? No
Report as
Psh, I will. Anybody got an extra puppy they don't need?
Report as
My girl friend was in the peace corps and I can't really get her to talk about it but I'm pretty sure she had some dog meat at one point.
Report as
People don't NORMALLY eat things that taste disgusting, and I'm sure if it's cooked right we would all eat it
Report as
Yeah... like you NAFTA. Sorry man but if worse came to worse I WOULD cook and eat you. Just survival...
Report as
Cook a hog a$$ right and I'll eat it!! 8)
Report as
Speaking of cooking hogs,Nafta, you just cooked your goose with me and others that volunteer at animal shelters. You come off as "the big know it all " of ask.com. Pathetic.
Report as
oh snap lol
Report as
Maybe I do know it all?? The fact that you seem to have no imagination and apparently don't like to explore the realm of thought isn't my bad. BTW, you didn't even actually answer the question

lolz right, coulda just said no
Report as
LMAO!!! I love people like this. Nay sayers. Everyone else that answered was positive (except Scoobydid) and wanted to have fun, she poked her nose in to talk smack, hilarious :)
Report as
And thus GOT smacked... by your brain lolz imagination conquers once again.
Report as
My imagination does not extend to eating tiny defenseless birds. How do you balance your head? I did answer the question. Do I need to explain the word " inference"?
Report as
Please do, school me in your ways of negativity. I know you answered the question. The other beautiful thing is that I can say whatever I want and don't have to be tied down by people like you. If you didn't like the question, you didn't have to answer it, but you just HAD to butt in and add your two-negative-cents. As if I'm gonna eat a Hummingbird when I go get pre-killed animals at the supermarket, do you complain about that too??

Don't be hatin' on chicken... I friggin' love chicken <<

Good idea. Now you need a good marinade recipe.

Well. Those things move pretty fast. And you really have to do some work to get them to appear and eat. I would think that for the amount of meat you would get, plus all the bones, the work wouldn't equal the reward. Maybe if you could trap a flock or school or whatever they are called it might be worth it. Maybe cook them up like hot wings or something.

Dude, we bought a feeder on a thursday and put it out at like 7 at night that night. The whole time I was thinking it was gonna be a pointless waste. The very next day there were two of'em!!!

Nice. My girlfriends mom has had a feeder out all summer and she gets none. I try not to be an a-hole but I'm pretty sure she's doing something wrong. I remember my parents having some when I was a kid. Not too many birds the first year, but every year after there were at least 3.

Ours is a translucent red so it really catches the light well
