Now that is some amazing photography! Great post Madrasahs.
Some years back, my son heard a bird hit the window. We went to check it out and it was a humming bird. Almost thought it was dead because it was lying there lifeless, with its tongue hanging out. I picked it up and realized that it was alive, just stunned. It was so minutely tiny and delicate. It took quite a while for it come around. It was a happy feeling to see it fly away safely. If Jeff hadn’t heard it, I’m sure it would have died. The neighbor’s cat likes to hang out near the patio and it was a very hot day. Good memory.
I just love watching these birds and the marvelous way they take flight.
