Things with wings

 Juvenile ruby-throated hummingbird
 It must have been raised here!
 Is this mom? Could be
 Junior diving into the nectar
 Mm mm good!
 Yep, that's my boy
 
 I figure they nest in Mr. Ken's Cypress tree

Look who came to visit today!
 A bee-u-t-ful female Monarch!
 She loved our French Dwarf marigolds :-)
 Such a patient model, too
So glad she stopped by!
Also saw this little Cabbage White
And of course the busy Bumble

Our weather has turned clear and cool...Oktoberfest weather!
These clouds quickly flew off to the east
 Allowing us to enjoy this splendid waxing moon!
*sigh*

Love the hummer pictures. Well, all of them, really, especially the moon!

You could have included a picture of an old airplane flying low and slow. *pout*

But those cool hummingbirds made up for it. I'm good now. ;)

Feels like autumn here as well. Love the monarch.
