Hummingbirds are truly amazing. As a testament to the hummingbird, winner of the Favorite Backyard Critters Contest, here are a couple of amazing videos. Enjoy!

My thanks to everyone who tweeted, voted, and got involved in letting me know their favorite backyard critter :-)

    I really wanted the Screech Owl to win, but I love Hummingbirds! I’ve planted my garden to attract them and just love the summer months when they are active there. Thanks for this fun contest!

    I love so many of the animals who were up for voting. I didn’t mind which won – hummingbirds are great, and so are screech owls, quail, squirrels…
