Sick Hummer ?
This little fellow has been visiting my feeder since early May. But he doesn't just visit & feed he goes to this perch for about five minutes then back to the feeder for a sip. Not like his brethren who are off to more normal hummer activities. I guess he's a bit sick. Any other opinions?

I'd say he's probably molting.

Poor thing's probably freezing to death!
Our hummers are noticably "off color" No ruby throats, and the green is more a dark brownish with streaks of olive.

Mt Left could be right here,,the birds showed up at the appointed time.But we didnt keep up with our part of the bargain by providing the proper weather for this time of year.

I still think this little guy is a bit under the weather. His buddies come and go but "shorty" here breathes hard and continues on his circut just the feeder & perch. No protein breaks between.

The sugar water is his protein.
