Awright! I just snapped my first-ever photo of a hummingbird.

I'm pretty sure this is a female Ruby-throated Hummingbird - I knew you all would know. I looked her up in one of my books. Looks something like a Rufous Hummingbird. Maybe I'll see some of thiosein a few months.

I read about using clear sugar water, so I brewed me up some. I poured out all my red colored water that I bought from Walmart and put in clear sugar water. Now, I'm starting to get some hummingbirds - nothing was coming to the red water. What comes to red I wonder?

Dang, they are tiny.

A Juvy Birder, the Hackster.
