The Hummingbird
A flash of harmless lightning,
A mist of rainbow dyes,
The burnished sunbeams brightening
From flower to flower he flies.
~John B. Tabb
I just saw a green hummingbird
Right outside the kitchen window
Of the red robins unafraid
What a little spunky fellow
Every day he comes to visit
Nectar feeder painted yellow
Bigger birds at the feed table
While our sly kitty waits below
But David hums out of trouble
Quickly flying backwards from foe
Tomorrow he’ll be back again
Our fearless mettlesome hero
Goliaths quite often we’ll meet
But we’ll defend our nectar sweet

In the backyard we hang a nectar feeder just for the hummingbirds. We love these feisty little creatures unafraid of the bigger birds.
