And Then There Were None...


Jake was coming out of the garage yesterday and scared the last hummingbird into flying away. She was thinking about it all day, standing up in her nest and I guess we gave her an extra little push. She wasn't that good at flying yet, so she couldn't leave right away. She buzzed around in the tree a little bit and finally settled on another branch to rest. We left at about 5pm and when we came home later that night she was gone.

I wonder if the mom is sad or happy to begin looking out for only herself again. :)

Well I think the Mom now has a well earned break... It's good to know they both made it just fine, now you can put out a feeder and pretend that they come back to see you everyday. They sure grew up quick!

You should put out a feeder. I have one and it is fun to see them come and drink all the time.
