A Hummingbird Discovered
Mike Flom, a friend of the Celery Farm, writes:
I found this Ruby-throated Hummingbird in my garage by the Celery Farm this morning, making distressed chirps while fluttering against a closed window.
As I gently guided it with a plastic rake toward the open garage door, the hummingbird paused on a flower-colored beach blanket.
While no nectar was reported, it picked up nesting material before flying to freedom.
(Thanks, Mike!)

Awww…thank God he found him and released him. Do you think it could have been that heavy rainstorm that made him go off course?
