Farewell Hummer

 

This is my one and only hummingbird photo. We would have as many as five at a time fighting

each other over the feeder. Last week we were down to only one hummer. This morning, after a

night of high wind and waves, I found the feeder lying on the deck and syrup all over my screen

and patio glass door. I think it's safe to say they are gone for the season. I can't say I blame them.

After all, it's not as if they can enjoy the cozy fire with me. I will miss them, but look forward to

the new wonders that come with fall and winter.



Speaking of wonders, we had a Mama bear with her two cubs come to visit lastnight. They

were right up to the patio peeking in. I keep forgetting to take a picture, not a video, because

I still haven't mastered uploading a video yet. I have tried all the instructions, but it just

isn't happening. I hope they return so I can get a photo to share with you.

Our good friends and neighbors came by for supper tonight. We have known Wayne and Marg since we moved to the lake. We all attend the same church. When I asked if I could take their picture Marg said you're not going to put it on your blog, are you? No Marg, never!

This was a sunset a few nights ago . Since then it's been cloudy and rainy.

I didn't have any luck finding the fabric I wanted for my shams. I think I'll

wait until I go to visit our daughter and her family. The have a JoAnn's fabric

and a Michael's there in Michigan, so I'm hoping.......
