And here is a beautiful May Hummingbird who visited
David and Nicola and Vincent on the Meadow in the Chilcotin
and allowed David to take his picture, and David in turn has
allowed me to show you this wonderful colourful fellow
so bright eyed and golden throated, - his pale pastel feathery body
so indicative of a glorious spring
He is only one of many hundreds who visit the meadow folk.
Here is the breakfast bar at 4:30 a.m. a few mornings ago
and I have seen photos of over two dozen customers
on David and Nicola's blog at the Homestone
Their latest posting is of wildflowers in the Chilcotin
very beautiful, very delicate.
sweetly captured.
My work is the world
. Here the sunflowers, there the hummingbird -
equal seekers of sweetness.
Here the quickening yeast; there the blue plums..."

Plump little hummer! One dive bombed Bob in his red biking shirt as we sat on the deck in the late afternoon. Nothing blooming in my garden yet to attract them. Your Header is so lovely, Hildred.
Wow! Amazing pictures of wonderful little birds.
I'm jealous; we don't have any hummingbirds over here. Thanks David, Nicola, Vincent, Hildred and Charles!
Ohhhhh! So wonderful. Just seeing a hummer fills me with joy!
He's a very handsome fellow!
Neat shot of the hummingbird!
