This is one of four quart sized hummingbird feeders that we have out. All of the feeders are very busy. We are now going through 6-8 quarts of food a day.Hummingbirds are great 'teachers' ! They are small yet feisty ; fragile yet strong; resilient; joyful and just plain amazing !
Once again my bud Sarah has tagged me.
Once again, I will be at a loss to know who to tag in return - this could, conceivably, go on forever....perhaps that is the idea !
1. My favorite colors are "ick" greens and orange.
As an aside to this:
Last week I had bought a few beads at the local bead store on Friday. On Saturday I realized that I did not have the bag ! I called the store and they had found the bag . They put my name on it and held it for me. When I went in the following Tuesday to retrieve it one of the clerks with who I am friendly said "...are these your beads? They were not with the bag but they were YOUR colors so I figured they were yours!..." Molly's a peach and I just had to chuckle to myself that I known by "my" colors !
2. When I got my pilot's license 25 years ago my father's comment was "...yeah - you're a pilot and I'm Abe Lincoln!..." He liked it though when I took him flying !
3. I taught basic meteorology to an air force class. I think I have since forgotten the material!
4. I was once a runner - taking first place the "masters" (read that as older!) category for 10K at age 45.
5. I went to Woodstock (yes, technically I was too young) - my parents thought I was visiting a friend! I only lasted 1.5 days though - it was too dirty for me and I had to go to a hotel (my fathers used to be a VP of a large chain) for a hot bath and room service !
6. I used to hang out at the Fillmore East in New York City - at the time Bob Dylan was still playing on smaller clubs .
7. I am glad to have survived numbers 2 thru 6!
That's IT for me - I am now happily enjoying a quiet life and actively try to avoid drama!
NOW - IF YOU READ THIS - CONSIDER YOURSELF TAGGED BY ME FOR MeMe !!!
