The caption says he feeds it honey. PLEASE DO NOT FEED HUMMINGBIRDS HONEY. Anything but a commercial hummingbird nectar or a solution of 4 parts water to 1 part white granulated sugar, boiled for 2 minutes, then thoroughly cooled, can cause throat bacteria, and kill hummingbirds. Still, it's a cute video, so enjoy with your favorite hummingbird!

This man is Brazilian. He is saying that the birds mother left him on his porch and he raised it. He keeps the towel over the water so the bird has to ask him to eat. The birds has no shame and keeps calling him for food. and the bird is now use to calling him.

When the bird leaves he says, Come back here, come drink some more. sit on my finger and lets go near the camera. 

When it flys away again he said, Are you all done? you sure? ok I'll keep your food here.

Thank you for the translation! Is he speaking Portuguese?
