Hummingbirds continue to make the headlines of the birding world here at Dallas Retirement Village. This bright colored male Anna's Hummingbird appeared at the juice feeder on our balcony last Saturday. We were delighted to see a male, because we have only been seeing females recently, and in fact very few of them. Hummingbirds have been extremely scarce this Spring, and almost daily I get asked what has happened? I don't really know. I can only guess that it has to do with poor weather conditions or disease. Whatever the reason, it has made each and every sighting of a hummingbird extra special.
