Tumblr Thread: Gentle Man Gets Friendly Hummingbird To Sit On His Palm
If you're someone who loves animals as much as we do, then you have had those moments where you would see some animal out there in the world and want nothing more than to befriend it. A cat walks up to you on the street, and your instinct is to pet it, a nest of birds is built in a tree by your house, and your instinct is to see if the mom is around to take care of the babies. We want to befriend animals - and the more unique the animals the better, and some of us are actually lucky enough to do so.
Like the man who became part of a lion pride and is now best friends with a bunch of lions, or the man who has been best friends with a swan he rescued for the past 37 years, or the guy who befriended a raccoon and her baby. We are jealous of all of them. And we are jealous of the guy in this tumblr thread as well, because clearly this hummingbird has chosen him. Okay, fine, we're not actually jealous of him. He's too happy and positive and wholesome for us to feel anything negative toward him.

It's the smile that really gets to us, man. He knows that he's dealing with a moment that is special, and he appreciates it, and we appreciate him for it. Also, the way that he so gentle and patiently waits for the hummingbird to sit on his palm… to the point that he doesn't even allow himself to twitch a muscle to smile until the bird calms down… yeah, we like him a lot.
