Little Critter Visit

What a wonderful end to an oh, so ordinary day!  At about 8:30 this evening I took the hummingbird feeders down, one at a time, to wash and refill them. When I took the second one outside, a hummer - that I believe to be an immature male - couldn’t even wait until I hung it up to take a drink. It flew all around me, up to inches away from my face, and then settled on the perch of the feeder, while I still had it in my hand!  

I was also very happy to see him feeding from the flowers on the deck!!  He spent quite a bit of time at the geraniums, checked out the marigolds and drank from the dahlias.
