| Additional on the hummingbirds This was the text which came with the pictures when I received it but which I forgot to include. 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. Abagail also said, 'if she had known her husband was taking pictures she would have put on makeup.'

| Very cool. Thanks for posting, Mike. To wrap this around to the perennial copyright conversations, some slime submitted these to a TV station as her own photos. The happy news is: she got caught. Hand Feeding Hummingbirds by The Hummingbird Lady Sylvia, it's apparently not hard to teach the hummingbirds to hand feed. It just takes lots of hummingbirds and more patience  --Rob Few hummingbirds & less patience |
