Happy Birthday....

..to my baby boy..
The MaleChild who came into this world six weeks early, with a full head of hair and great lungs.
Who spent two weeks in the NICU and his first year of life trying to gain weight.
With such a rough start he's gone on to do wonderful things...!

Love Ya...

It's 52 degrees .......

..on the front porch this morning...!

I think Fall is creeping up on us and pretty soon things will look like this again...
Can't wait...Fall is my favorite season...
Plus
I've got some new  vest and jackets....!!

The MaleChild....

..was here over the weekend...
And took a few shots of the hummers...
How does he do that...?!
I always get bullet shaped blurs.....

Sorry about....

..the picture quality...
But
it was rainy...the sun was setting and it was getting on toward dark..
This 
is just 5 of the 16 hummers we had buzzing around the feeders...!
Drink up little birdies....it'll be time to travel south soon...

Not bad for the middle of August..
However

Looks like...

we're dealing with Congestive Heart Failure...
Seems to be common with Jack Russell's -
Maybe 'cause they are soooooo active..!
Anyway...
She's on med's and is doing fine....
Recheck next month..
 
Plus the Malechild moved back to Boone yesterday...
everything for his graduate studies came thru on Monday and away he went.
Another 2 years of ASU...!!
and this is the kid I didn't think would make it thru high school.
Thanks for all your prayers and good wishes...

Are the mountains calling you?
Come see us...Mushie is waiting for you...

A Flock...?

I counted fourteen of the little buggers yesterday morning...!

We are filling the feeders twice a day..sometimes three times..!

Their wings make sooooo much noise you can hear it inside with the A/C on...!


According to the nature books ...for every one you see, there are four more hovering around in the trees..!

Yikes.....we're being invaded...!!

What do you call that many hummers.....a flock?......a gaggle?.....a swarm?

I call it expensive....we're going thru about 10 pounds of sugar a week...
