Male Broadtailed Hummingbird 5/20/2019
As a violent spring storm crosses the country, the temperatures along the Front Range of Colorado are hovering in the low 40 degree range, and may dip below freezing tonight, and the drizzle we’ve had all day may turn to snow.
Yet hummingbirds have been in the area for a month. These little guys have to burn through a lot of energy to survive a cold wet storm like this.
Fill up, little hummer! We’ll keep it coming for you!
What the devil is with this weather? 4 inches of snow this morning and scads of tree limbs down all over the neighborhood. Even the squirrels seem to wonder what the devil.
It’s Springtime in the Rockies!
