Hummingbirds!!



This summer I got the chance to go see hummingbirds get tagged and learned alot about them. I also got to hold one and release it back into the wild. I adopted my little feathered friend... who was caught again 3 days later... LOL They are the neatest lil birds..... None of the birds were hurt in any way. After they were tagged, the one who adopted that particular bird was given it and told to walk out by the trees and to slowly open your hand to release it. Mine stayed put for quite awhile.... I even got to pet it. Then he flew off happily:)
