Hummingbird in the House.

During all the turmoil of the water in the house we discovered a humming bird had got trapped in the screened porch.

Many attempts to help it find the exit did not work.
It would fly around back and forth and then rest on the hanging chimes and look around.

Eventually I decided to lure it out with flowers.
It sucked nectur from some trumpet flowers I placed by the entry way.





However it still continued to fly back in and around ithe screened porch looking for the way out.





We washed out the humming bird feeder and made up a strong solution of sugar water and place it hanging low down by the door.








The humming bird no doubt by now exhausted and needing energy eventually fed from it and then flew out of the door to freedom.








Hopefully he flew away full of nourshment and not too exhausted or over stressed.
