| Those red feathers are not colored red -- but they REFLECT certain lights. | If light does not reflect off of the feathers, you might mistakenly think you have an entirely different hummingbird! |

| This feisty guy
(these four photos) kept ALL other invading hummingbirds our of his 3
feeders in September!
You can see he's a fighter -- just look at his beak!! |
What a tongue -- perfect for sucking in the nectar from flowers (or water from a feeder). |
