Hummingbirds

We went with Mom and Grandpa and Grandma Leyshon to see the hummingbirds at a ranch near American Falls. The hummingbirds stop at this ranch every year as they are migrating. There are hundreds of hummingbirds. They tag the little hummingbirds on Memorial Day weekend. It was neat to watch them carefully catch and tag them. They even calmed the hummingbirds down and let us hold them. The one I held stayed in my hand for a few seconds...long enough to get a couple of pictures. It was neat to feel it's tiny heart beating.




Holding the hummingbird. That's my grandma standing next to me. :)
