We just hoped for the best for this little guy, that he found safety and made it through the storm.
Later on, as the winds raged on, and shingles and soffits began popping and sailing off the roof,
landing everywhere, we saw a rabbit take off from the direction of the firebushes like a bat out of you-know-where. We figure it's likely that a shingle or two, maybe a soffit ( we found both under those bushes after the storm) fell nearby where this rabbit could have taken refuge under those bushes, and it scared him so he ran off. I hope the little guy found safety somewhere.
We think wherever the hummingbird spent the storm, he made it through. We saw him several days after the storm, visiting his firebush flowers a number of times, and he has made several return trips there. We were so happy to see him.
