Thanks, Lee! They sure are pretty! We aren't in the range maps for that species...but I think I know what they're doing...they're migrating! Must be really hard for birds to find food and water (in this case, nectar) when migrating over Texas. Texas is just one big disaster. BTW, we just got a letter from the water company that operates the water system here. We are now in Stage 3 water restrictions. The RO for treating our water in this area is going out and has to be replaced...in the meantime, Stage 3 will be in place. Sad
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
Integrity can never be taken. It can only be given, and I wasn't going to give it up to these people. Gary Mowad
