Ruby Tuesday - The Buzz

I put up a hummingbird feeder Saturday. So far I've seen two different hummingbirds stop by for a drink. Since I was preggers last year I didn't put forth the time or energy to put one up, so it may take them a while to come around. I have decided that I could sit for hours out there with my Canon in firing position waiting for the "perfect shot". It's not easy to get a perfect shot of those little devils either. They are quite fast. These are a few of the early shots, hopefully with a little more experience I will be shooting them with a little more ease. If you would like to see more wonderful Ruby Tuesday photography, click the badge below the collage to take you to Ms Mary, our wonderful host. I think you'll like what you see! Now, I'm off to change some light bulbs. Why in the world is it that when one goes out, they all do?! I changed one in the kitchen yesterday and now the other is out. Grrrrr...

Hello Spring!

"Honey, you have to have rain in order to have the pretty days filled with flowers, green grass, and birds singing."
-My Grandma
This was my grandma's response when I would complain that I hated the rain. I still don't care much for rainy days, especially when I have three kids with three different destinations in the morning and I have to get them in and out. But, I always have to smile when I remember my grandmother's comforting and wise words. I miss her every day, but especially at spring time. I would always call her and she'd tell me when it was time to put out my hummingbird feeder. I need to get over to The Wren's Nest and get some of those fancy feeders ordered because Oscar the wiener dog chewed up the one from last year. We've had so much rain the past week that the yard is saturated and the kids are going stir crazy. I know, you don't have to leave me hate comments that at least we got rain and not snow. We're lucky...I guess. I'm just ready for the rainy part of spring to be over with! I grabbed my Canon Monday and grabbed a few shots while the sun was shining, sure signs of Spring. I am glad to see it!
