Feeding Hummingbirds
Submitted by Al Driscoll

From a forwarded e-mail

"The woman is Abagail Alfano of Pine, Louisiana. She did not do it for a lark, but had studied them daily. One morning she put the cup from feeder with water in it and they had gotten used to her standing by the feeder and they came over to her hand. She says in touching they are as light as a feather. Had she known her husband would take pictures, she would have put on makeup !!

This is something I have never seen before, or ever even heard of. This lady lives in a Hummingbird fly zone. As they migrated, about 20 of them were in her yard. Just for a lark, she took the little red dish and filled it with sugar water and this is the result. "

PRETTY AMAZING, HUH?
