    Poor little Hummingbird

    One of the people I work with found this little guy on the sidewalk outside my office about 1/2 hour ago. We don't know if he hit the window or what. We moved him to a grassy area so he wouldn't get stepped on. When it started raining, I brought him inside my office so he wouldn't drown. We have had tons of rain lately. Anyway, he went to the Rainbow Bridge about 15 minutes ago and I feel so bad. I hope he was comforted in his last minutes and not scared. Here are a few photos that I took of him before I brought him in. Have fun at the RB little honey! I thougth you guys might want to see how beautiful he was. Sorry one is a little blurry. I guess I had the digital camera too close.

    Poor little bird. You did what you could.

    At least you kept him warm and safe for his last hours. Fly at the RB, little hummingbird

    How sad. I'm sure it was a comfort to him to not be alone in his last moments.

    RIP sweet hummer.

    How sad Poor, beautiful little hummingbird How kind of you and your co-workers to comfort him and give him peace and love during his final moments and lay him to rest with respect. No doubt his beauty and spirit are bringing much joy to those at the Rainbow Bridge. Fly happy and free, dear birdie[/B]

    How sad sweet little one. I'll never forget handling a hummingbird who had been injured in my backyard when I was a little girl. Such exquisite sweetness and beauty packed into such a small sweet body. Enjoy RB little sweet hummer.
