She can land on a transformer once then, the next time, be killed when she brushes up against the jumper wire. Part of the rabbit he had caught was still entangled in a nearby powerline.

All her pets are rescues. But one day, unbeknownst to her, a wild rabbit dug under the fence. She let her dog out, he spotted the rabbit, and took off like a bullet. She keeps her cats inside. Unless she is accompanying her dog, he stays in a fenced-in area. We have a cat that is a hummingbird murderer.”

When I see a band I imagine something slipping beneath it and trapping the bird, I’ve seen photos of birds with so many bands it looks like they’re wearing stockings, and then there’s the awful story of Violet , whose band eventually killed her.

He never chased the rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, or deer who regularly visited. Photo by Paul Huber. Photo by Evan Long.
