[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 421091, member: 7544"] Nice save Rich. BTW that is a he. The male has the red color patch on the front of their neck and the female has the same color as their belly all the way up. I recently closed off part of my carport and screened it in. To date, I've had to remove two hummingbirds that didn't see the screen in time and they drilled their beaks up to the hilt so to speak. One of them I was sitting in the swing when he did it, so it was a quick rescue. The other I found as I walked out the front door. He was just hanging there, limp, with his beak stuck in the screen. At first I thought he was dead, but as I gently removed it from the screen and held it in my hands it slowly started to move around. After a while, it seemed to regain it's strength, and finally just flew away. Amazing how light they are, I couldn't even feel the weight of it in my bare hands. [/QUOTE]
