BASICS


BASICS: "Hummingbirds.....where is the person, I ask, who, on observing this glittering fragment of the rainbow, would not pause, admire, and turn his mind with reverence..." (J. J. Audubon).
This is a blog about my summer life at the Baiting Hollow Hummingbird Sanctuary, at my winter garden, Calypso, in the Bahamas, and aspects of life in general.
This private sanctuary is now permanently closed to the general public, as a result of a lawsuit brought by a neighbor. Only my friends and personal guests may visit (paul.adams%stonybrook.edu).

Fred on a new perch

Fred, the dominant male hummingbird at the Baiting Hollow Sanctuary, is using a different perch - a little bit closer, but still with an encompassing view of the western valley.. Here he shifts his position slightly. 2X slo mo


and here you catch a glimpse of his ruby throat as he departs again
