Here is a black chinned humming bird that was on Little Baldy near Quannah Parker Lake in the refuge. Gosh he put on a display, he buzzed us several times.

    Very nice! Even though he's still, there's a sense that he's about to buzz around some more...


    Oh, and welcome! wave.gif

    Thanks Eric & Susan, BrettG,Skippy, and DRT-Maverick.
    I have a feeder which hangs near my front porch, so I see these guys all the time, but it was a real thrill to see one out in the wild. I guess there was a female around because he put on a spectacular loop de loop figure 8 flying display, it was most awesome!!!
