I put the hummingbird feeders away last week because we thought they were all gone for the year. Then, one female hit the cypress vines for 5 more days. I hope she migrated before it was too cold for her. Haven’t seen her since Tuesday.

I love to watch the hummingbirds just hovering for hours
They look like mini helicopters pollinating flowers.
And yet I still feel sorry for the little hummingbirds
They always have to hum because they never learn the words.
(poem by Al Yankovic)
