JC was driving and I was the passenger. We went past an area I've driven by countless times, but this time I saw the headstones and realized what it was. Like you, I want to go visit. I really like old cemeteries. <br /><br />We haven't had any hummingbirds yet and all our winter birds are gone. So, it's the regulars at the food bar:~)<br /><br />It's amazing how when you tune into the singing of birds, you hear so many more of them. Before I had my feeders, I never noticed much birdsong, but now I do...especially the wrens. For a tiny bird, they have the loudest song!<br /><br />Love the lush plants you potted. I bet they'll be really nice. Plants are so good for us:~)<br /><br />Have a great day, Lynn.

Does "late scout" mean that they are already committed to feeders elsewhere??? <br /><br />And I like to think that is was just for me - I think so. <br /><br />Joe -<br /><br />Sometimes if there is work involved in something simple like that, it goes undone. In this case it was needing a tall person to put a hook up and encouragement from my neighbor who enjoys her hummingbirds so much and then the commitment to doing it correctly (you have to change that nectar out about every three to four days - and more often than that if it's really hot.)<br /><br />Leonora -<br /><br />I will - I love old cemeteries. <br /><br />And thank you - it is very lush. I was thinking when I posted that photo that the siding on the building doesn't add much beauty to the photo, but the green lushness around it does come through. I always carefully edit out the air conditioning units and satellite dishes. :)<br /><br />Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-16864392883945502382014-05-14T05:30:10.269-04:002014-05-14T05:30:10.269-04:00I would definitely check out the graveyard!

I actually saw a scout when we had snow on the ground.
