I have never seen a bird like that

I see it’s been a while since I posted. Life just seems to fly by. Yesterday was a quiet day really. I just got a little paperwork done before an hour or so dog training then back to cut the grass and cut back the old raspberry canes before tying in the new ones. Then it was lunch and out with the management for a couple of hours walking. Eventually I got to settle, watch a little soccer and speak to the family.

Today was the usual 5.00 am start then out on the hill with the dogs. It was a beautiful day with good guns who could shoot for a change. It started cold at -2 and clearing the windscreen, then in the sun it lifted to about 14 so it was a case of shedding clothes as the day went on.

I will finish the day on the computer prepping for a day at the desk and meetings!

That is cold! When I was in weather that cold, I don't remember it. I was too young

Right? Most hummingbird pics I've seen have them caught mid-air or mid-motion. This is more a still silhouette which makes it look less hummingbird-y. Nice shot

I am no ornithologist! @Ambient4190 identified it in their post or I would not have recognized it either

Give me a number and I'm more likely to remember

I'm thinking number 1. Easy to remember and reminds us of everyone on the thread. Even the observers.

How do you know we have observers? Does your device ding and say "you have an observer online" in a calm sweet voice?

Some say lurkers. I prefer to them as observers... More elegant and accepting.

Hun, there's no reason to delete that at all. Who are we to pass judgment on anybody.

Plus, if you delete it, you deny @Wonderer67 the opportunity to Beavis and Butthead it
We simply cannot have that, now can we?

Speaking of inappropriate. Someone who stayed at my house had a portable squatty potty. They couldn't believe I didn't have one. Then they showed me this commercial (I'm not sure it is a commercial, but ) I'm not sure what made me think of this , but I laughed the first time I saw it.
