I know the critter you're talking about but had no idea wth it was when I saw it. I thought it was a hummingbird at first also but it's an insect of some sort. They'll let you get right up close and they don't seam like can hurt you but man are they odd. Only took 10 years to learn what it was called. Nobody I discribed it to knew what the hell I was talking about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
