Bigger in Texas?

Post by bffulgham »

Even our hummingbirds are bigger. The feeder is a 1-pint size just outside our kitchen window.

I thought for sure they were mutated Black Chinned Hummingbirds that maybe morphed after passing thru Trinity Site or maybe the DOE WIPP site in Carlsbad on their way to the panhandle.
We get quite a few of the Black Chins. This is one from a tree in our front yard.

The nuke testing at Trinity Site created THEM! didn't it?

I saw it on TV and it was confirmed on the Internet, so it has to be true.
