Why is this hummer so interested in the tomato when it looks too dry to have any juice left? The hummer could actually be gleaning fruit flies or other tiny insects on the fruit. Being omnivores, hummingbirds balance their diet with spiders and insects as sources of necessary protein.
"The last of the tomatoes are drying up on the vine. This little humming bird is getting a little vitamin C before the flight south. Who knew they liked tomato juice." Amy Evoniuk Newburgh, IN 09/21/14
