It reminded me of the first time I encountered a humming bird. I was a small child, playing in a field behind our house, when I heard what I assumed was a giant bee. It was a humming bird, which was something unfamiliar to me. I ran to the house, and attempted to explain my encounter with this curious being to my brother. He explained humming birds to me, and I've remained fascinated with them ever since. I have a series of feeders around my house, garden, and pond.
