Hummingbird protector


A loud, cawing raven perches on the roof edge,
seemingly a predator in this quiet neighborhood.
Undaunted, the tiny Anna’s hummingbird streaks round
annoying the huge black bird…until finally the “threat”
departs. 

Last Spring, the harassment was directed
at an invader hawk. Hummingbird protector!

  1. I like the details in the silhouette. That curved beak does look lethal - I think the hummer should stay clear!
