For the Birds

The hummingbirds will be heading south any day now. It's too bad. Their arrival brings hope for warmer days filled with sunshine and flowers, and their departure is a reminder that colder weather and less hours of daylight are just around the corner. Yesterday I enjoyed watching this little guy enjoy the sunshine from his seat on a broken flower stem amid the cardinal flowers. I hope he has a safe journey south and comes back to visit me again next spring!
