A Bird in Hand...

Home

Ellie found this little Ruby-Throated Hummingbird on
our back porch yesterday morning. It was lying on
the decking after flying into a window (or something).
She cared for it for about an hour until it was able
to fly out of her hand. She is so caring and sweet.

Fabulous capture and a sweet story. It doesn't seem in a hurry to leave her loving care. Wonder if it will remember her.

Sweet Ellie. Beautiful image, Scott but not as beautiful as the story that goes with it.
