Hummingbirds are hard to catch, especially with a camera. Did you know that a hummingbird's brain is 4.2% of its body weight, the largest proportion
in the bird kingdom? A hummingbird can also fly an average of 25-30 miles per hour. Great work to the photographer for catching this fast moving bird.
In the news: A Santa Barbara Superior Court judge has ordered the release of David Attias, four suspects were arrested for allegedly stealing from local
farms, and Santa Barbara Police arrested 54 drivers for driving under the influence this past August. Read these stories and more, below.
