HUMPHREY

WHO'S HUMPHREY ?????

Patti, our daughter, has a wonderful "relationship" with nature!!!! Last year she discovered a Humming Bird hovering around her kitchen window. After some "GOOGLE" research, she learned that she could buy a special feeder and the little fellow would return and return!!! To her amazement her new friend returned several times a day!!!

This year she noticed what she thought was a different bird. This one had a red ring around his neck. She soon learned that Hummingbirds develop a red neck ring as they age!! So her little friend returned........and he brought his buddy, or baby, with him!! The second bird has yet to grow his red ring! Of course, Patti, has bought a second feeder!!

When we returned from our vacation, I happened to notice a Hummingbird flying around the back of our house.....Well .....you know I had MC at Lowes buying our feeder that day!!!

We put the feeder on the Terrace, but he would fly in and leave. Something scared him. A couple of days ago, MC moved the feeder to the kitchen window and he has been having all his meals with us since!!!

THE FEEDER

We have noticed that all feeders have the same "Target" mouth
and all the liquids are red !!!
The birds know exactly where to go
AMAZING

It has actually taken a week to capture these pictures. Humphrey would fly around, we would go grab the camera, and by the time we were ready to "shoot" ....he was long gone.

Oh, but we got SMART!!! For two days we have had the camera on the table, ready to go!!!! He showed up for breakfast! MC aimed.....and the camera's battery was dead!!!

The battery has been charging all day......

Jackpot. He showed up for dinner!!!!!!!
