Busy Day

Today was a day for watching hummingbirds in our backyard dive bomb each other as they attempted to defend our feeders.  It was hard to keep count of them, but at one point I saw six hummers.  I was able to take a few photos of the hummers at one of our feeders.  It was amazing how totally unafraid they seemed to be of my presents.  On several occasions they actually hovered near me to check out my camera.

In the evening I took a leisurely bike ride around Loose Park and the local vicinity. Life is good when you take the time to enjoy what is in your own backyard.
