🧵Today in the garden, a hummingbird approached me. (Animals always come close to me, maybe because I have a chill energy.) He hovered in front of me, looking right at me. “Hey Spike, what’s up?” I call him that because he is tiny but mighty, a sword of vengeance against the larger hummers that crowd his small kingdom (my two hummingbird feeders). Spike flew to the nearest feeder about 6 feet away. He dipped quickly about three times, not really drinking.🪡

幾秒內	Celeste Bradley celeste.bradley	🪡 Then he flew back to hover in front of me. “It’s full, dude. I can see it from here.” Spike flew around me and then hovered in front of me again. I put down my trowel and went to look at the feeder. Sure enough, I had tightened the screw neck too tightly and the base wasn’t filling. I fixed it and the second the air bubbles rose, Spike was there. I stepped back and watched him drink up.🪡

When it was empty one particular little guy would shift over and hover in front of the window, giving us the stink-eye until we rectified the matter. If he could have tapped his little foot at the same time, I swear he would have.

I put up the feeder in the spring, but no hummers so I sadly took it down again. A couple of weeks ago I was working in the garden, heard the familiar zooming noise and there was one of my little friends hovering 2 feet in front of me to announce that they were in need of some dinner.

Chickadees will sit on the wire outside my bedroom window and call until I come out. Crows too squawk when the treats are eaten. I love them all.

一天內	Jack jack_gardner_cda	We have oriole feeders. My office is on the second floor, overlooking the yard. If we let the feeders run out of jelly, several orioles will come sit in the tree beside my window and stare at me. One recently got right on the window ledge when I didn’t react fast enough.
