I had just got back from walking to the post office, and my little one was asleep in the stroller. So I wheeled him onto the patio, and sat down on the swing w/my LLBean catalog. I saw something in the Impatients out of the corner of my eye, and my first thought was that it was a very large bumblebee. I sort or started, and looked to the side, and immediately saw this hummingbird, hanging in the air, and I SWEAR he was looking right at me! He hung there for a second, then flitted off. I was SO bummed that I jumped like that. Had I turned more slowly, I could have watched a hummingbird not 12" from my face!
Too cool.
(hope I didn't scare him away forever,LOL)
