Been A While

I know its been a while since I have done any new posts. It has been a rough couple of months for me personally and just havent been able to do much here on the site.

But today I saw something I just had to share, and as always you never have a camera around to catch the event happening. I was sitting outside watching the birds and I looked up to see a red tailed hawk try to land in a cedar tree across the street, just at that moment, he took off and was flying hard.... because there was a very mad hummingbird on his tail LOL

This hummingbird had his tail all spread out and you could hear him chirping his madness at this hawk and he literally chased him off and came back to his tree. I have seen mockingbirds and crows and other birds chasing off hawks, but never in my life have I ever seen a hummingbird chase one off. It was as if he was saying "Come back and fight like a bird". It was very humorous, cuz you could hear him chipping his little mad hummingbird chips at him, they were flying by quite low. But as always no camera or video camera to catch the moment.

I have had many many bird visitors since my last post, and the baby cardinals are growing up big and at times there can be up to 50 birds out there wanting to feed, so it seems I will be needing to get some more feeders and seed for them. I am wanting to get some thistle seed and another tube feeder, and another hummingbird feeder. I think that should keep them occupied for a while.

I do hope to have some more posts up soon and hopefully maybe some pictures as well.
