It's getting late in the season. All of my hummingbirds are going to migrate back to Mexico soon. This summer I learned that hummingbirds are a lot more aggressive than one would imagine. There was a male that patrolled our feeder all season. He would attack any of his hungry hummingbird contemporaries the second they perched on "his" feeder for a drink. Oh, little birdy-helicopters. I'm going to miss you guys. |
I hate it when summer... and birds leave.
ReplyDeleteI'll miss my amigos. They're incredible to watch.
ReplyDeleteBut, winter amigos will be stopping by soon. You can feed them winter food :) Spread peanut butter on a tp tube and roll in bird seed! yum yum! :)
ReplyDeletewe would use a pine cone in girl scouts. They made us dip the cone in the jar and I'd get peanut butter all over my 10 year old knuckles. I hated it. So, I didn't sell any of their cookies to get them back. what a badass.
ReplyDeleteLMAO! My mom was cookie mom when I was in girl scouts, so we had boxes and boxes of cookies at our house. Back then we would sell the actual cookies, you didn't have to wait 3 months to get them. And they were like $2.50 a box, now they are like what $5? And they tasted better back then. Wow... I sound old. But that was like 20 years ago that I was in girl scouts.
ReplyDeleteOh god! I'm old!!!!!!!
ReplyDeletei love my hummers. i will miss them. this summer i found out that i don't like praying mantis as much as i thought, apparently they like to sneak attach and eat hummingbirds. sad!
ReplyDeletesneak attack!!
Deleteare you for real? I think praying mantis are totally badass but if they sneak attack and murder my special helicopter friends I may hate to start putting them into tiny correctional facilities whenever I catch one.
ReplyDeletegoogle it. there's pictures and videos. i didn't watch the videos. they might have made me cry.
