Use the force little hummingbird. Use the force!

Good morning Boys and Girls.

Ever notice how certain people just make you smile when you think about them?'

You can be annoyed with them, angry with them, deliberately avoiding interacting with them, and still, when you think of them? -they make you smile - which, of course is in itself, annoying.

I have people like that in my life.

In fact, that wouldn't be a bad sort of person to aspire to be, would it? -Hell, I want to be one of those people.

Last week, I wrote a little about the pair of hummingbirds living out front. There's also a large bright blue dragonfly that I've seen each morning outside the sliding door out back.

Just went out onto the front porch to have a cup of coffee, and the hummingbirds were duking it out with the dragonfly, which is longer than they are.

I like to think they were defending the feeder out there, which, I'm pretty sure, the dragonfly couldn't use anyway.

The female hummingbird was the better battler of the two.

Wow. I just realized what the hummingbirds sound like when they fly nearby the feeder and then away... Their beating wings sound exactly like the Star Wars light sabers. Zwohoah... Zwooooooahahhhh.

They make me smile too.


Be good to everyone.

(Ha. Just ran spell check. It wanted me to replace "Zwoah," with "swoosh"....

-Nah.)

Every summer I've had hummingbirds but, I've never had a feeder. I think they like my flowers. So this year, I decided to put up a feeder. I've been watching for my little friends to return but, so far, no go :( I really hope they come to see me.

That would have been pretty cool to capture it on film or digital camera.
