My hummers

Norcal in the Cencal is in the midst of July, which means perfect weather. It's hot and clear. Unfortunately, the state's on fire with wildfires everywhere. The skies have reflected the burning hills south of our little burb and to the east of us. But...this morning, oh my goodness! It is absolutely gorgeous. My backyard hummingbird feeders are full because I made "birdie soup" for them. They are flocking, literally, 2 & 3 at a time to eat this morning before the heat of the day. I love their whirring sound and outrageous chatter at my pups as they wander around the patio. It makes me smile everytime I see them. I am so lucky to be able to sip a 6 am cup of coffee and watch their antics. It makes the rest of the day, water aerobics, cleaning, job search, teenage surliness, laundry, etc., so much more tolerable. God bless my hummers and their insatiable appetite for red sugar water from a Wal Mart feeder. God is good.
