Hummingbirds Have Personalities

Little Green Cotton Ball!

Of course they do!

And it is such a gift to be befriended by them. Ever see one just sit and fluff up like any other bird, just listening to you talk?

I've been blessed by the visit of a pair of Anna's humming birds. Male and female. I know this because the female is gray and green. The male has his beautiful ruby colored throat.

Since they have graced me with their presence.. I have been capturing unbelievable photos of these little powerhouses, in so many different settings. Its truly amazing.

Here I will contribute a capture of a little one, sun bathing, and listening to my greeting. I want to share all my photos!

They seem so happy when I go outside and talk to them! They wait for me to come out, then buzz my head.. and perch on a branch near me and visit before getting to work on my California Fushia flowers.

In late November none the less!!

I love this legend !
by: Cindy

These little "Travelers" are truly historical! I have read that these little ones exist in other countries to which we've never seen the likes! Archeologists have found fossils of their existence!
These little ones.. would always hover between me and the camera and the flowers.. just to look at me with curiosity.. land on a branch nearby.. fluff up, listen to me.. cocking there little heads..at me like a puppy dog does when they are paying attention to you.. as if to ask.. what??
"I find you so interesting!" When it is us that are thrilled with their visit!
But alas they are gone for the winter. They surprisingly stayed beyond their seasonal instinctive alarm clock!
I don't have a feeder.. they just flock to my flowers. But I am going to get one now! Maybe they will find me again on their way back!!
It was so exciting to have them here!

for the hummingbird whisperer
by: Robin

legend has it that the crimson stain that colors the hummingbird's throat is from her ancestor
who drank from the lillies in Galilee.
She once tried to give a thirsty man on a cross a drink from the fruit of flowers and brushed his cheek with her feathers.

The little bird is acquainted with the Man of Sorrows and spends her day gatherng her nector
lest he ever be thirsty again.
You are blessed to be the companion of such a special bird. She knows you are her friend.

Hummingbirds have personalities
by: Marlene

I couldn't get over how this tiny little bird sat on a branch and 'fluffed' up his beautiful little feathers.

I've never seen a picture quite like the one you took.

What a wonderful 'hobby' you have taking pictures of these 'precious' tiny birds...

All I've ever been 'blessed' with is have a few in my '72 years 'buzz' my head and take off fast! Just so wonderful of you to share with others who love Humming Birds.

Please send more pictures...I will be looking forward to seeing them.
