They feed on the nectar of plants and are important pollinators. However, contrary to popular belief, they at times will eat insects, and collect insects when feeding their young. So they are omnivores.

Hummingbirds are not omnivores; they are nectarivores, meaning they primarily feed on nectar from flowers. Their diet consists mostly of flower nectar, but they also consume small insects and Spiders for necessary proteins.
