My son and I went to a park Saturday where I caught this guy on a perch I shot several hummers last year. The shot is a crop of a bad image so please excuse the quality. But it is the first hummer I've seen this year.
What I find amazing is that the park doesn't have any feeders out yet nor are there many flowers. So this male must have been one of hummers which visited this exact park last year. Mind boggling in a salmon-coming-home kind of way.
Makes me appreciate them even more. Tough little guys
BTW, my wife promptly put out the feeder Saturday and we had several visitors already today (Sunday).
