We went back to Minnesota a few weeks ago. It was a good trip. It is always good to see family. I also enjoyed the show my mother-in-law's hummingbirds put on. I had one this year, but she had a plethora. I put on my pink hat and tried to take as many photos as I could. I'm a sucker for hummingbirds.
The sunflowers in South Dakota were breathtaking. The fields literally glowed. I'm sure those were happy bees in those hives.
Finally, for my loyal readers. During a meandering Minnesota drive, I about jumped out of the pickup while it was moving. Lo and behold I saw that Darlene had made it to 70. Congratulations Darlene! You were just 60 three years ago. Someday I will stop and meet Darlene and her sign painter.

We have had LOTS of hummingbirds this summer. We started using a new kind of feeder (like the one in the first, second and fifth shots) and put in a more shady place. We think they might be done now, haven't seen one in a couple of days, but will leave the feeder out for another week and a half or so, in case in travelers pass through.
ReplyDeleteThose South Dakota fields are beautiful! What a great part of the country that is.
