I rarely have a hummingbird at my feeder and I've never been able to get a picture (until 8/31/11). My picture won't win any prizes but you'll love this beautiful video about hummingbirds.

Squirrel acrobatics !!
Squirrel acrobatics; is he ready for the Olympics?? The dome is designed to deter the squirrel from raiding the bird feeder.
Postscript, Tuesday, August 30th, 2011: The squirrel is (or squirrels are) very undisciplined!! I came home from work and found the plastic dome---broken---on the ground. I've been good to those little critters and this is the way they say "thanks"?!?!
Yentl
I just watched Yeltl on TV. It has been twenty-eight years since I saw the film in a movie theater in Pasadena, California (with my son and daughter-in-law). I loved the movie THEN and I've loved remembering it through the years!! It was a joy to revisit such a poignant illustration of one woman's faith in God. I'd like to "wax eloquent" about passionate love for God but too few people want to hear (or read) such words.
While I am in my apartment, I usually listen to the CD player with songs and music by an old acquaintance (from thirty-plus years ago): Marty Goetz. He plays the piano and sings scripture. It is such a comfort!! ~~ At work, I have Family Radio quietly playing from the computer. Very conservative Christian music and rock-solid Biblical teaching!! (I can't listen [at home] on my laptop computer because the speakers ceased to function, and extension speakers don't work either.)

Glued to the TV re: Hurricane Irene
In the wind, I replaced the bird feeders with wind chimes. (I had over a dozen wind chimes when I lived in Lancaster, California. It was a symphony of sweet music!! Rarely any wind here--near Lancaster, South Carolina.) I brought the bird feeders, and plant, indoors so they wouldn't sway in a heavy wind. A squirrel-friend came looking for his food. ~~ No heavy winds, no rain, here although hurricane Irene came on-shore along the coast of North Carolina at approximately 7:30 AM (approximately 200 miles east of Waxhaw).
"I'm not afraid of you!!"
The Mississippi Squirrel Revival
My friend, Debbie, sent me an e-mail cautioning me about letting the squirrel into my apartment. She sent this link regarding The Mississippi Squirrel Revival. ~~~ This is so cute!! ~~~ THANKS a billion Debbie!! ~~~
Je suis très content.
Squirrel-friend is very happy!! Things are back to normal. (Ignore time stamp.
Actually, 5:45 PM. I want it to follow the previous blogs.)
