Evil hummingbirds misbehaving................



Keeping their eyes on each other before settling to drink.............

We've had some travelers from up northern stop at our feeders on their journey southward.  The travelers cause quite a ruckus.  When Cliff and I are sitting out on the back porch, the birds totally ignore us as they chase each other down through the center of the porch flying by our heads.  We only have about three more weeks of their entertainment before they return to their winter homes.  This  strange spring/summer with the pandemic and the bizarre wet weather with no sunny days was a blur in our memories. I'm already imagining  what I can do differently next March in the gardens.


Cliff had a hankering for "cottage pie."  Real shepherd's pie is made with cute little innocent lambies but Cliff scrambled hamburg for his cottage pie.  The internet said using hamburg was cottage pie, so it must be true.
Grating Kerry Gold cheddar cheese before it went into the oven.

Voila!!!!  He said it was very tasty.  I didn't have any.  It looked to heavy for my stomach.  These past six weeks of humid stormy days and tropical systems in the gulf and Atlantic Ocean have been difficult on my shoulders, wrists, hands, and fingers so I was thrilled when he happily made this recipe.  Now we're waiting for Hurricane Sally to travel our way bringing more tropical energy and rain.
