    This Allen's Hummingbird is (we're told) spending her days on this branch waiting for nesting time.  I think she's called Olive.

    The webcam featuring Phoebe the hummingbird used to sustain me throughout the winter before the ospreys return so I'll check this out, thanks scylla

    I did follow a well-known hummingbird for one season - misfortune befell her, and I think the cam owner took the chicks into care.  It's a good few years ago now, I can't remember the details.

    Yesterday or the day before I recorded some of Olive from my screen but haven't got around to compiling the clips.  Now am rather too tired - had flu+covid jabs yesterday and reacted more strongly than usual.

    Probably going to be offline for a few hours Slight smile

  • I also followed Phoebe (Allen) webcam, my first introduction to the amazing world of Hummingbirds, however I can't remember all the details but was surprised to look back and see how many years it had been running! Looking forward to nesting on this new one!
    Sorry to hear that you are suffering from having the two injections at once Scylla, I was more fortunate in having them separately, no after effects from covid two weeks ago and keeping fingers firmly crossed nowt from this morning's flu jab, am taking a paracetamol every four hours as advised by Nurse as a precaution! Hope you feel better soonest!

    I must be nutz, I was just thinking about taking some for a headache, but it might have helped with very painful arm and chills.  Just no presence of mind whatsoever Tired face

     This is a leftover from the Devon  nighttime - the snail crawled up to the top, around and down and around the feeder - I hope it was worth it Blush
