A Bird In The Hand Stock Photo

We went to the Humming Bird Festival in Diamond Head, Mississippi. One man had gently taken a hummingbird from the net, placed it in a piece of a nylon stocking and weighed and measured it. Then he gently removed the piece of stocking and placed the bird in the woman`s hand. He said as long as she didn`t move, the bird would still think it was unable to move. It would realize, in a few seconds, it was free and fly away. It was amazing to watch this tiny humming bird completely still.
