I went to a house in Madison Wisconsin, where they were having a tour of how they weight, measure and band hummingbirds. They have a garden with lots of Hummingbirds.

Fascinating. Are these hummers that are being rehabbed? Otherwise, how/why do they capture them? Thank you for sharing.

They have a database. After they have all the information, they let them go

Very interesting, jlrivera! Poor little hummers we're most likely scared to death!
