Subject: Re: [MDBirding] Puzzling hummers - how much interference


To be clear, I'm not trying to harm hummingbirds, or lure them to stay
in Northern Baltimore City for our sake. I was only trying to find a way to
get a clear, crisp photograph of this mysterious beast in order to
have it identified.

All that aside, I still don't get the logic of your argument Jim
(Michael). Can you be sure these hummingbirds are not visiting local
feeders and only stopping by Robert E. Lee Park occasionally? And
based on your last email, how would hummingbird banders successfully
capture a bird only visiting flowers in a relatively large area? If
it is possible, that's great. I just thought their nets worked on
feeders (for the most part).

Best to all,

Dan
