I have company planned for the coming weekend as well as I am finishing up a consulting contract. As a result I find myself outside soon after daylight these mornings, both to get tasks done, but also to enjoy the calm, cool, sunless sky that feels so nice this time of year. It was chilly here this morning in particular so a fleece was my accompaniment to wander about and ward off the morning chill.
This fleece is a variant of red, but I thought nothing of it. I wore it last winter to no notable events. Hummingbirds, however, decided my fleece is quite flower-esque indeed. Tending the chores, and buzz, buzz, study, study, and then deciding I’m not food. Out to the wood pile, buzz, buzz. Raking the lawn, buzz, buzz. Walking the dog, buzz, buzz, buzz!
There are six fresh feeders upon my deck during this time, but I too see the appeal; I must have appeared to be a gigantic flower – imagine the prize within!
