Oh - she's beautiful. What a special and rare treat. Your reward for being so kind.

How cute. It's hard to believe that they can fly as far as they do being they are so small.

Are they very territorial? We have a feeder and watch one particular hummingbird that just stays in a tree nearby and if any other hummingbird comes near the feeder, he dashes down and chases them away. I call him "Johnny On The Spot". He is there so quickly nobody else can get a drink. He lets me know when the feeder is empty by coming to me and just hovering around 4 feet from my face, little bugger!

I have one that comes to my kitchen window to the feeder. She tells me when it is time to make fresh solution, like today. They will be leaving any day now. Mine have gotten fairly tame but have never landed on me. They were funny in the spring when they arrived before I got the feeders up. They kept buzzing up to the window and trying to get my attention. Within 5 minutes of getting the feeders out they were there feeding.
