Hummingbirds get the energy they need to maintain their astonishing metabolism primarily from flower nectar and the sugar water they find at feeders. For protein and other nutrients, they also eat soft-bodied insects, ants and spiders. Hummers need nectar to power the bug eating machines they really are. You could think of them as miniature flycatchers, and sugar is just the fuel for getting their real nourishment.
