Hercules

Hi Sis,

Nate has been trying to encourage me to feed birds, so we can have pretty birds to look at while eating breakfast. I wasn’t interested in bunch of birdseeds and poop everywhere, and we already have so many pretty birds to look at outside the widows. Seriously, our new house has so many amazing and beautiful birds that I’ve never seen, and we have Red Wings, Cardinals, and these ultra yellow birds (not gold finches) and red finches everywhere. But, when Nate offered to get me a cute hand painted hummingbird feeder, I couldn’t resist. Those guys are just too cute.

The day after I hung the feeder, a little hummingbird decided our house was a great place to frequent. I named our hummingbird Hercules, and enjoy seeing him multiple times a day at the feeder. He even decided to drink on Monday, when I was outside sitting on the porch.

I know it isn’t a good picture, but how does one get a good shot of a hummingbird? 

Love,

Jamiegoof
