Wildlife update

Large hanging pot of little red bugle flowers means...hummers! The pot hangs by the back door, so I watched the little widget while I ate dinner. I loves them.

The singleton goose is gone. Haven't seen it for weeks, and did not see a spray of feathers anywhere on the expressway that would indicate a bad end. I think its mourning period ended, and it left.

Every so often, I would see a pair of geese in the same area and get excited, thinking that Singleton was pairing up again. But later, I saw a pair of geese at the same time I saw Singleton, so I guess s/he remained alone.

I have a hummingbird feeder outside my office window, and also pots of hanging petunias, which they like.

I've seen more hummers in the last couple of years than I did in the previous 20. Maybe because I started gardening more?
