I went out to shoo the wasp away from one of the feeders, and a hummer came right away - like he was waiting to get a drink. So he came and got a drink and then flew right in front of my face and stopped as to chck me out then flew over my head and fluttered there for a couple of seconds. He did this twice. It was so cool. He seems to recognize me and was saying thanks. I know this sounds crazy but he's come around close to me before, but not like this. How was your Saturday, Pam? Do anything interessting or go anywhere? It as 75 and real pretty today. guess you are far enough inland that if that storm does come close to the US, you'll be safe. Have a good rest of the weekend, Pam and have a good time dong something fun!. Hugs, Wendy
I've only seen about 3-5 birds around our feeder, and they all seem to look like the 5th bird in your graphic, except the males, they have a red throat. I think it's because just 1 family of birds live close by. At our last place, we use to have a gaggle of the little Hummers...
GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Pam, I pray YOU have a STEADFASTLY SENSATIONAL SATURDAY, and are having a SALUBRIOUS WEEKEND, my friend...
Hi there. Well it doesn't feel like Fall today. Its in the 90's. I would like it to be in the low 80's. That is supposed to happen this next week. I hope you are having a nice Friday afternoon and will enjoy your weekend. We aren't doing anything special, just going to be at home. Well take care my friend and many hugs to you, Cheryl
I don't think I've ever seen any other kind of Hummer, but, The Ruby-Throated kind, and those are the ones that come to our feeder. The males are the ones with the bright Ruby Throats, the females are mostly grey & green...
GOOD MORNING, LOVE, HUGS & BLESSINGS, Ms. Pam, I pray YOU have a FABULOUSLY FREAKISH FRIDAY, and a FANTABULOUS WEEKEND to follow, my friend...
No, none of the hummers at my place are colorful either. i though I saw a red throat once but not sure. Had a busy day - went to the dentist only to find out it was the 28th. Not sure why I had it down for being today. I didn't have anything to eat yet and it was 2:30 so wnt to Taco Bell - haven't been there since way before the pandemic. Went to the post to wait for Richie's brother to come back from Jersey. He was bringing back subs and Jersey tomatoes - 3 big ones too - an some small gourds. Tehy still had the dirt on them so I started washing them but some are still in the sink awaiting a bath. I did a load of his whites, then took a shower so Rich ended up folding them and putting them away. I started decorating for fall and bought a new saying - Thankful - that I strung acrosss the fireplace. Have been looking for a Merry Christmas one, but even though everything was 50% off at Hobby Lobby, there was no Merry Christasmas. Have to start on the wreath I bought too but I'm not a very crafty person , so we'll see how that turns out. Need to get it done and put up on the door. have a good day at work tomorrow. Sleep well tonite. Hugs, Wendy
I walked in the silence of Autumn, Through solitude's sacred retreat; I sighed with the winds of November, Where Summer had bowed in defeat; Defeat, for her green leaves were faded. Defeat, for the bloom was in blight, And the balmy breath of her mornings, Had changed to the chill of the night.

you know autumn is here andsoonwinfer willbe on its way
Hi there. Its finally Fall and it sure feels like it here. Its 59*, cloudy with some drizzle. And tomorrow it will be back in the low 90's. Oh well, I knew it wouldn't last long. :) Hope it is cool where you live. Not much going on here. Just getting the laundry done and still have the dishes to do, but I will get them done soon. I hope you are having a good afternoon my friend. Take care, hugs, Cheryl
Went to Hobby Lobby today - yes I still have some money left!! lol Got some new things for Fall decorating among them a grapevine wreath and things to decorate it with. I've never had a fall wreath - can you believe that. Don't remember what I put on the door unless I just don't remember and it's still upstairs in the things that I haven't unpacked. Another senior moment. Asked honey to make his famous potatoes and hot dogs, easy for him after all the chopping - and so good, plus I didn't have anything defrosted and I didn't feel like cooking. His daughter came down with a friend and they all went out target practicing - he gave her friend an extra gun he had. I wasn't invited and he told me a while ago but only told me a moment before she came in. Getting ready to eat some popcorn and I need to fold the towels from yesterday. Guess becauce it's fall, your temps aren't cooling down any. Hugs, Wendy
