Ann, it does look like it. Has the eye stripe and everything. My computer is AWOL right now and I'm too tired to go back and look at last month's thread. Mom and I are plotting a food run right now. She wants donuts, for some reason. And who am I to judge? (I'm one to join in!) Rolling on the floor laughing

I saw a hummingbird today but no chance of getting a picture. It was on the firebush which is right in front of my house. I tried sneaking around the cars in the driveway but they always see you coming. And then it went high up into the oak tree and mocked me from above. It was probably mad at me for hanging out in the front of the house today. I was working on my bromeliads and moving them to a different location. It was when I was walking back across the yard I spotted the hummingbird. I bet it was just waiting for the human to leave so it could hit up my tasty firebush.

Margaret, Canadian birds are pretty. I especially like the Yellow-Headed Blackbird. We sent all our Canadian snowbirds back your way, but we'll be accepting them back around October. Rolling on the floor laughing
