Yes, I'm calling you out Robin hummingbirdstones . That new avatar is seriously cool. But, that poor frozen hummingbird.... It's an icicle that formed that way!. My sister saw it on one of her walks with her husband and took a picture of it to on FB and sent it to me.  |

OMG I though it might have been some kind of ornament that got covered with ice. Unbelievable that it formed that way - amazing. It has wings, and a tail and a beak too.... BUT makes me cold just looking at it. Once in a lifetime/eternity. Points to your sister  Patty |

Fantastic. Go liberate it and put it in your freezer.

That's incredible. My wife was looking over my shoulder and said, "That's so cool! Grab it for next year's Christmas card!!"

Fantastic. Go liberate it and put it in your freezer. I'd love to, but it's on the other side of the country and it's probably thawed out and deformed by now.  |

Well hell, I had to call my sister and ask her about this. I totally misunderstood what she told me. She said she found it on Facebook. I must need to get my hearing checked or something or start paying attention to what she's actually saying (she talks alot all over the place). How embarrassing. I'm still keeping it as my avatar, though, cuz it's cool. ETA: Changed where it came from in the first post.  Good catch rickb. Thanks for keeping me honest.  |

[/quote]I figured that's exactly what happened. I rarely actively listen to my sister. LOL!! [/quote] I definitely don't listen to my sister. I will occasionally listen to any one of my four brothers. Edit: hummingbirdstones, great avatar. Better than my pink bunny for the lunar new year. I was doing a google search for icicle hummingbirds to see if there were others out there. I saw a few yard ornaments that were covered in ice but I saw the photo you posted on many news and social media sites. |
