Have you ever known a person to whom animals flock to when injured or in need of help, almost like God guided them to that certain someone? Well, Arnette Heidcamp is that person to whom Hummingbirds seek out. In this book her compassionate care of Squeak is very heart touching. If you're familiar with her other writings, you know that birds in trouble are drawn to her.
In "Hummingbirds: My Winter Guests", Arnette Heidcamp tells the story of more of her rescued hummingbird visitors. Among them are Little Peeper, who has a shoulder injury; Charlie, who was attacked by a cat; K-T, who flew into a window at breakneck speed; Little One, who's nest was destroyed; Crystal and Red who were both off migratory track Rufous hummingbirds.
Come Spring when they are fully recovered all of Arnette Heidcamp's little angels are returned to the wild. This time one of them, Crystal, stays in Arnette's backyard for awhile much to her surprise.
As with other of Arnette Heidcamp's books this book has amazingly beautiful photography that she took herself, of the winter guests. An excellent book for anyone who loves birds or memoirs about nature.
