Memory

I held a hummingbird in my hand while it recovered from being banded for research. This was in the Arboretum Teaching Nursery during a demonstration by Dr. Lisa Tell from the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine. It was an emotional experience, since we mostly see hummingbirds flashing past.
