We had a tiny visitor in our garage today.
Around and around this little hummingbird flew. He had the hardest time trying to get out.
He flew...he rested.
Finally after a half hour, the kids and I decided to try and help him out. I grabbed our hummingbird feeder and stake and lifted it up in the air. I thought if he came to the feeder I could lower it down and out. While he visited the feeder several times, I never managed to move it very far before he flew off in a panic again. (I have the gloves on because I thought that I might actually be able to "catch" him while he was at the feeder... ha!)
I've never seen a hummingbird that up close before. He (?) was beautiful!!! The kids named him Brian. Izzy took most of these pictures. I thought she did a very good job. We finally gave up trying to help him and went back to what we were doing. He made it out eventually... I saw him visiting the feeder later. Oh, Brian!
