    Baby Hummingbird and Mom

    Baby hummingbird

    This is from California..........

    "This is actually a pretty amazing story about a baby hummingbird that was found on a sidewalk. He couldn't fly, so I took him under my wing. At night, he would come home to our house for safety. During the day, he was in the backyard of the house near where I found him. About 4 days after I found him, I was holding him in my cupped hands when his mama came by to feed him. She had seen me around, I guess, because she just flew over, perched on my hand and then fed him. This happened a number of times, so I called a friend who is good with a video camera, and he came over to film some of the amazing goings on that I told him about."

    How absolutely SWEET! So glad Peeps made it. I wonder if he had a sense of where Peter lived and if he went back there.

    What an amazing story. My parents live in Saratoga,CA so I had to send this to my dad as well as some other friends. I've always loved hummingbirds and I'm so glad that Peeps recovered and was able to be set free.
