I plan on doing not much today. Maybe trying to get another shot of this guy, a ruby throated hummer, so very different than the ones in my yard at home, but really fun and beautiful, though I confess to thinking my yard hummers are much more exotic and jaunty looking.
The up close view from my chair on the porch -
some bones and shells from Culebra mixed with Maine
Just a reminder for those missing Culebra views (like me) - you can always find good ones on Bill Kunke's blog, along with what is happening weather wise.
After you finish the crossword, you can read my favorite hummingbird poem. Have a sincerely good Sunday! Do something soothing.
You captured a rare sight - a hummingbird wing. We feed and enjoy our ruby-throats and I love the change when we come to Culebra or go to the desert. I also enjoy the hummer impostors on Culebra, the b-quits.
ReplyDeleteDidn't know it was a rare sight! He gave it to me again a little later on...I'll post it tomorrow. Now I'm hoping to see a rufous hummer, one of apparently the only two kinds to frequent Maine. But the rufous is not as frequently seen as the ruby throated one.
