Hubby and I got home from some errands and suddenly realized we had a baby hummer out front. The little thing was having a little trouble flying and was chirping a lot. I got my camera and ran outside. The little guy landed on our hose reel.
Then he moved onto one of our feeders.
I got a little closer, not wanting to scare the little guy away.
And then a little closer.
And closer.
Put the camera down to just watch him. He took a sip or two, then flew......right at me!! :new_shocked: I could'nt help but to catch him. He just sat in my hand.
Then went up on my shoulder.
I put him back on the feeder and a female kept coming at attacking him. Female is flying.
Here she is attacking the little fella.
Then a male came....so pretty!!!!
Another pic of male.
While we were watching all this going on, our resident hawk came flying through the front yard chasing our resident pheasant who is known as Henry. Henry was squaking like crazy.
Then, I turn around and see this on my window! :new_shocked:
The male will sit at eat at the same feeder as the baby, but the females try to chase him away. He left again and went over the roof of the house. Now hubby says he's back!!
I guess you could say that hubby and I had a very interesting day! Now a storms coming......gotta run!!
