You're sitting on your back deck having dinner and watching birds drinking from the small pond and next thing you hear the zoom of a hummingbird flying directly at your face and then stopping mid-air about 2-feet away! You're too stunned to react. What a thrill. So you sit a little longer nda notice a biggish bird in peripheral vision chowing down on a big caterpillar - a juvenile Black-billed Cuckoo - watched it for about 4 minutes while it watched me not making out if I was alive or not.
Nothing like dinner on the back deck!
