Default Hummers

I saw my first hummingbird of the season yesterday. It was a really nice
day and I got a lot of work down. I had been out to a local flower stand
to get some more annuals. Luckily, I had not lost any of the flowers
planted last week, despite four nights in a row of frost warnings.
Between buying and planting flowers and tearing out an ugly old Rose of
Sharon I spend about 5 hours gardening. I sat down for a coffee and
heard the hum of the bird. It lingered almost long enough for me to get
a picture.
