Hummingbird, Ruby-throated (FIRST)

Number: 1

Hey Gang, I just had my first visitor of the 2011 Season.

May 1, 2011 5:12PM EST/DST

I'm 90% positive it was a male. It looked awfully dark, I think I saw a V tail and definitely no white tips on the tail.

Kinda spooked one another as it hovered past East to West across the back patio as I had just jumped outside to chase after a pesky squirrel chewing on one of my Black Walnut trees.

He flew over to my neighbors' back yard and lighted on their feeder (filled with that red junk, I don't know how many times I...oh, you know) sat for a quick taste there then over the house out of sight.

Gotta scoot, AHHH nothing's blooming inside to take out outside! WHAT TO DO!!!
