I'm a runner in addition to cycling and one time on one of my runs I saw a smashed hummingbird on the sidewalk, about eight miles later on my way back I came upon a baby/fledgling hummingbird trying to fly for the first time. I picked it up and tried to help it. It was making little chirping sounds and freaking out, but it was trying to fly right into the street and couldn't fly yet. I tried to help it by tossing it in the air a couple times but it was just flying onto the busy road with traffic going by like crazy; this is Los Angeles. So I tossed it the other way into the veterans grave yard and went on my way. But is was really cool holding a live humming bird. I have also had a humming bird build a nest in a small plant outside my apartment door. I could walk right up to it and take pictures if I wasn't threatening because it would not get off the egg unless absolutely necessary. Here's a couple pics. PICT0183.jpgPICT0177.jpg
