Luís interrupted his Sisyphusean task of sweeping the African tulip tree blossoms off the driveway this morning, to come upstairs to show me this baby hummingbird sitting on the driveway.
There’s a lot of hummingbird action going on in the African tulip tree above and we decided it was best to leave baby alone and hope mom flies down to give it some help.
Your photography is so enjoyable. I’m glad you are not afraid to go macro.
Thank you! Hard not to go “up close and personal” with a still hummingbird. 😉
If I could pucker up and whistle, I think you could hear me…I’m at Callejon hidalgo 107…by the fountain at Cafe Cafe on Tinoco Y Palacios
Walking down Tinoco y Palacio this afternoon, glancing in a little tienda, I saw the back of a woman wearing a flowered blouse and a wide hat and thought of you! I didn’t know you were in town. Could it have been you??? Let me know when you are available to rendezvous. Looking forward to seeing you!
any update on the little hummingbird. I picture you taking him upstairs to your rooftop garden and somehow figuring out a way to teach him to fly
Another neighbor took it up to her 2nd floor terrace and provided water. Alas, it didn’t survive. ;-(
