Hummingbird, Ruby-throated (FIRST)

Date: 04/21/2011

Number: 1

I am so happy! The first hummingbird of the year and it is "Puffball." He is a male hummingbird that was here for two years in a row and didn't come back last year. I thought something had happened to him. He is unusual in that he has an extremely short beak and a completely round body (not long and slim). He also has a marking on the bottom of his throat as it transitions into his gray feathers that looks like a black bow tie. So happy he is back :)
