Hummingbird Lane
This is something I have never seen before, or ever even
heard of. 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.'
