Hummingbirds

I love Hummingbirds! They are the most magnificent little creatures!

Last year at lilac time, we were having a family BBQ. It was dusk and we were all congregated in a circle not too far from a big lilac bush. I looked up to see bunches of humming birds enjoying the sweet nectar of the lilac bush.

Together we counted about 16 hummingbirds! It was quite a sight! I didn't even know that there were hummingbirds in Wyoming!

I was just poking around Susan's blog. She has a great post on Hummingbirds including pictures that she took of her little visitors!

So if you've ever want to attract them... or wanted to be able to make DIY nector... check out her post: Susan shares about Humming birds.

The house is very quiet this Memorial Day. The kids spent the night at Grandma's....

It's overcast and windy. The sky is heavily laden with thick dark clouds, a promise of s rain... maybe???

I covered my garden last night just in case the wind got to be too gusty for my tender plants.

The summer has just begun here in my little town... no more pencils... no more books... no more teachers.... Our kids are out of school for the summer!

Rich and I will be pulling more water lines today for the new house. I'm sooooo anxious to move in! Shoot... we even have central air going... while I'm sweltering in this little rental.

It's truly a lesson in patience.... and hard work... and creativity!!! Well better 'git er' going!
