It was very rewarding when they finally flew away after recovering from the exhaustion of trying to fly out through the skylight. They really are death traps for many little birds and insects.

They are the most exquisite little birds. My parents have tons around their house in Texas and have all sorts of feeders up for them. I love the gentle ‘whir’ of mealtime. The speed of their little wings is amazing.

I’ve held them in my hand after rescuing them from a neighbour’s skylight, and they are so, so delicate. They weigh about as much as a feather.

Their are no hummingbirds in Europe! I didn’t know that! Who would then want to live in Europe?
