Hummingbirds are important to the ecological system because they're such a unique bird. Three quarters of the world's flowers depend on insects, birds and bats for pollination! Of the 200 species of nectar-producing plants in North America, 150 of those depend on the hummers for seed dissemination, dispersal of pollen and regeneration. If plants don't pollinate, fertilize and reproduce, they will die.Therefore, can we conclude that is not for the hummingbird, some species of nectar-producing flowers would die and become extinct?? Probably.
So plant a trumpet honeysuckle to help hummingbirds get their nectar for pollination!
