A family has started a new tradition and all dress up in flamboyant outfits - to attract hummingbirds.

The Cline family from Denver, Colorado, USA, say the event was inspired by one of their grandmother's love for the bird.

They don costumes and standstill in the backyard to be the first to attract a hummingbird - with the first person to do so winning $200.

More than ten people took part with their DIY outfits.

Footage shows the huge effort each family member went to with their outfits with custom-made clothing and bird-feeder add-ons alike.
