Hummingbird Lane

This is something I have never seen before,
or ever even heard of. This woman
lives in a Hummingbird fly zone.
As they migrated, about 20 of them were in
her yard. She took the little red dish,
filled it with sugar water and this is the result.
The woman is Abagail Alfano of Pine,
Louisiana -she has been studying them
daily and one morning put the cup from
the feeder, with water in it, in her hand;
as they had gotten used to her standing by
the feeder they came over to her hand.
She says in touching they are as light as a feather.

Wow Amy girl that is so amazing! Our hummingbirds were getting used to us, but they just like to buzz us and dive bomb us. :)
The boys are starting a research paper on hummingbirds to be due at Christmas. I showed them your post to use as material for their paper.
Thanks for posting that.
