Another (Small) Migrant


First Ruby-throated Hummingbird of the year appeared today at the hummingbird feeder- a male. This tiny little guy has just flown non-stop across the Gulf of Mexico, losing a good percentage of his body weight on the way. They feed on nectar and small insects. The feeder only went up yesterday.
