The Selasphorus was visiting the feeder in the Ripley Garden 8-9AM on Sunday.
Mostly it sat in the bush 10 feet to the right. Once it perched on the
crossbars of the heat lamp. Once it flew high and over the Hirschorn, but was back
in ten minutes.
It seems to be missing many of its central tail feathers. Pictures at:
