To Kiss a Hummingbird



I was home sick
this week and
my dogs alerted.
They were barking
at a young male
hummingbird that
had been attacked
by other males
and was hanging
precariously
on the feeder-
stuck somehow
in between the
flowers and the
perchrails.
I went outside-
got him loose-
gave him a kiss
and let him go..

Gustav


Gustav dropped 6 inches plus on us- and 1 inch more on the next day..
Maxed out our rain gauge!! The garden loved it...
Our Natchitoches Noisette is blooming with happiness...
The geese were happy to have us home too.
