now that I have your attention...
Its post Memorial Day and now we turn our attention to our party this weekend. We are getting ready by sprucing up the yard, planting, trimming, etc.
We placed a coloful new hummingbird feeder near our pergola and have had several hungry little hummingbirds already. The nectar also attracts bees, so we have to deal with that. A little Raid sprayed nearby seems to keep the bees away without killing them.
This morning we were treated to the sight of a baby Robin, foraging in the ground near the office area. It was probably one of the chicks who flew just last Wednesday. It was nearly as large as Mama Robin, but still has the speckles on its breast. Wow, how they grow!
We have lots of birds that entertain us each day: Robins, Hummingbirds, Bluebirds, Quail, and of course the ever-present Mourning Doves.
I'm going to quit now because this writing is for the birds.
