This was just forwarded to me via email... thought y'all might like it.

"This woman lives in a Hummingbird fly zone. As they migrated, about 20 of them were in her yard. She took the little red dish, filled it with sugar water and this is the result.
The woman is Abagail Alfano of Pine, Louisiana - she has been studying them daily and one morning put the cup from the feeder, with water in it, in her hand; as they had gotten used to her standing by the feeder they came over to her hand. She says in touching they are as light as a feather. Abagail also said, 'if she had known her husband was taking pictures she would have put on makeup.' "

In Ohio they have a state park where you can hand feed them. It is really cool.

That's neat! I have one around here and if I just look at him he's gone.

I have 6 hummers coming into my yard now regularly. Early yesterday morning I was sitting on the patio drinking coffee & watching them when one came to check me out. I thought it was going to land on the edge of my coffee cup until the dog got a little too close & the hummer went back to the feeders.

interesting. I could so see my grandma doing something like this. She loves birds and flowers that much.
