Happy Summer
I placed the humming bird feeder out on
a plant staff. Happily in a day or two, a
female humming bird came to our yard.
She is small. Her iridescent feathers
make her seem like a jewel.
She is swift. One moment she’s at the
feeder drinking. The next moment she
flies off.
It’s a joy to witness. Yet it’s only for the
summer.
In August she will fly back south to
Central America.
The warmer weather enables us to explore and site see.
This past May 26 was our 30th Wedding Anniversary.
Our daughter encouraged us to go away on a vacation to celebrate.
I had been wanting to visit the wild ponies of Chincoteague. I had read both “Misty”
and “Stormy” of Chincoteague books when I was young.
So we went. It was a lovely time.
I posted about the trip at the Links below.
Enjoy,

Soldier Portraits
Darla Dixon organized a group of artists who will create no-charge compassionate portraits for the families who have lost a loved one in Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation Enduring Freedom.

who have sacrificed so much.”
