Look Who came to visit Yesterday
thats right....a ruby throated Hummingbird.....I dare say he is a wee bit early.
I was sitting outside soaking in some well needed Vitamin D and this little fella, buzzed up...
Well is sounded more like bfffffff then buzzzzzz.
I quickly ran in the house and grabbed the fancy Red Glass Hummingbird feeder i bought in the winter at a local thrift shop....washed it up and filled it with 1/4 sugar and 1 cup water.
Did you know that you should NEVER EVER give Hummingbirds the Red Liquid Food, sold in the stores....
Red food colouring can STERILIZE the Hummingbird....
That is just terrible.
Buy Containers that are red, not the food that is red...
P.S. did anyone feel the earthquakes today? I did, it made all my china cabinets chiggle.....eek!
Happy Long Weekend....the UNOFFICIAL first long weekend of the summer....
Be Safe, Be WISE
Be BLESSED

You have such a way of capturing life in your illustrations, Cynthia, and you do so in my favorite way...whimsically and lively. There are several artists in our home and some more serious than others. My favorite art is always lighthearted. This is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteNo earthquakes in Florida but headed for hurricane season soon. :( Glad you're safe.
Have a lovely weekend.

DeleteOh dear, hurricanes......i guess thats the trade off for all that wonderful sun....hopefully a slow season this year... :)

ReplyDeleteThanks for the tip- did not know that! Very cute hummingbird. Love his eyes!
No problem..... thanks Jenniffer.....I'm sure birds aren't' supposed to have eyelashes, but that's part of the "artistic licensing"...hehehe
