    Love them hummingbirds, they visit my feeder all day. Ruby throated hummingbirds here.

    Twice I've seen the courting dance by the male. He flies back and forth in a wide arc called the pendulum dance. It's the best view of the red patch on his throat.

    A good meal and a good song are my regular sources of joy. I also take delight in beautiful flowers, achitecture, and lake views!

    Tiggers are wunnerful....

    and Simbas and Nemos and Dorys and Flippers and Benjis and Rajas and all the rest!!!

    And you know something....... it seems that a God that created all this beauty and infinite variety of plants, animals, stars etc would not focus on ONE group of people.........I take comfort in that...

    I have a birdfeeder mainly used for goldfinches, and there are many doves coming around trying to eat something.

    The openings are small slits, so I cut several of them off, and installed little trays so the doves can get something.
    Now i get to see the doves and goldfinches eat together, really a neat site

    I'm a spider saver too! I try to teach everyone that they take care of the bad bugs in the garden; so far, nobody cares.

    One of my favorite things to do is at twilight to go sit by one of my ponds and have coffee or a cocktail and just admire everything and plan what to do next.

    It's funny you mentioned hummingbirds; I just saw one outside today and so I finally put my feeder back up; the flowers are getting to be slim pickings around here. I love plants and (wild) critters.
