There are hummingbird feeders with light bulbs

generally used in winter to keep liquid in feeder from freezing. Maybe this bird has one of these in its history, or elsewhere in its territory? No solid info online but hummingbirds do go after small insects in foliage or condensation on leaves. I just shoot ‘em, I don’t raise ‘em.
