We caught three Anna's Hummingbirds in the nets. Normally you don't even catch hummingbirds because they don't usually perch in the types of habitats where our nets are. First we had a female caught in the nets. When we tried to get her out of the net, she flew out. Luckily though, she came back and brought two males back with her. They all happened to fly in to the net. The unfortunate thing is that we were not allowed to band them because their legs are two small for our bands.
Incredible details on the gorget feathers! Keep up the good work! I'd love to read more words to accompany your great pics...
ReplyDeletethat's a great photo Liam! Check your range maps though because we had Anna's in Seattle and Bainbridge Island, and they continue to expand their range. (Lola is my alter ego- Dawn :))
