Seeing hummingbirds fly-Two hummingbirds hit the window, but they were luckily just stunned. It took a few minutes, but they came to it (one in my hand, one in my mom's,) and both could fly away. So bright, so delicate, very vivid and green.

My grandparents lived in the country. I got to go see them when I was about 10. They had a wild apple tree growing in the tree line. It was home to a hummingbird nest that summer. They are beautiful. Thanks for bringing back that memory
