It appears that the sun is rising earlier now as I woke up at 7 o'clock and the sun was up before me. Laid around in the bed till about 8 o'clock and then started my day.
Eating breakfast I thought I would drive the Jeep into Yuma to fill it with gas, but by the time I was done, I decided to do nothing today and do that job tomorrow.
Went over to Tom and Deb's for coffee again this morning. There was a breeze making things cooler today than yesterday. After finishing my coffee and crackers, Yuma and I came back to the White Lion and I laid in the lounger waiting for a hummingbird to come visit my feeder. Sure enough one did come by.Peekaboo, I see you!
In case you were wondering here is how the three of us have our homes situated along the American Girl Mine Wash.

We had a nice visit until until it cooled down at sunset and then Yuma and I headed for home.The weather was very nice today with the breeze and that kept the heat down. Time to finish my post and watch a little TV before bed.
Thanks for stopping by.
What a wonderful little hummingbird! Soon you'll have a whole family coming around. The ocotillo really stands out in the desert. It's a good thing all that good food didn't go to waste! Another beautiful Cali sunset.
ReplyDeleteSuch fun to have the hummingbird visits, looks like your feeder has a place for them to rest. Maybe they will figure that out too and stay awhile.
ReplyDeleteOcotillo are drought deciduous, first to drop their leaves and first to sprout new ones, depending on the moisture.
Red sky at night ... Beautiful sunset
It's fun to watch the hummers. If your feeder empties overnight, it's probably bats. Around here we have hundreds of them when the weather gets warmer. Love the ocotillo ... too bad they aren't leafing out here yet. Keep posting those beautiful pictures. The coolest part about the hummer photo is the desert reflection in the water!!
ReplyDeleteNo bats. Seems I have just one Hummingbird that keeps coming back.
DeleteI agree with Nancy about the desert reflection very cool! Gorgeous pictures of your day. Nice not to have to cook dinner once again, love leftovers! What a gorgeous sunset!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I could get used to not cooking 😀
DeleteCool pictures and Super Bowl leftovers. What a great day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Elva. It was a nice easy day.
DeleteDidn't take long to get a hummingbird at your feeder!! Very cool picture of it!!
ReplyDeleteIt didn't, but there is only one 😞
DeleteAmazing hummer pictures, actually your pictures are really good. Wish we were down there instead here in the cold snowy north.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Sorry you two couldn't make it this year. Hopefully next winter we'll see you.
DeleteBeautiful hummingbird! Thank you for that burst in my day!
