I love hummingbirds. Before I got a hummingbird feeder they seemed like an ultra exotic sort of bird I could only see very rarely for a brief instant, but now with a feeder I can see them several times a day. Sometimes they even watch me back through the window. Remarkably aware for such tiny animals.

This summer I woke up early and stepped outside in some bright tie-dye. I had a hummingbird approach me within about 4 feet and check out my shirt, obviously trying to decide if I was just a really weird flower or something. It was really incredible to interact with such an interesting bird (even though I'm sure he was annoyed that I wasn't in fact a giant flower).
