You may need to click on these photos I took to see the little guy properly. I went out to the historical conservation land of Monson yesterday and found a small tree behind the flower gardens. Near this tree was a hummingbird feeder; he who own
s the tree shalt own the nectar. :)This one hummingbird fought valiantly to defend the nectar against a formidable gang of three other hummingbirds. It was amusing to watch these tiny birds, no more than 2 inches long, in an epic battle over sugar water! In between bouts of high pitched squeals and fencing matches with teensy beaks, my little hero rested in the tree I sat near and I was able to get these cool photos. Never before have I watched a hummingbird resting in a tree in the wild.
So that's pretty much the whole story here. I hope you like them anyway. The photo of him flying is very blurry, but I thought it was interesting enough to put up here anyway. :)

I forgot to mention that the last picture is of the bird sleeping. Cute eh? I wish it was a little better quality. It's hard to focus on a hummingbird when its windy and there are leaves around larger than he to fool my camera lens. :D
i actually really like the blurry one of him flying. the angle you caught him at is so head on. lol. like he's looking right at you. haha.
thanks! That's the reason I put it up. So the quality bites! It's still a great pic in my opinion. :D
