Saw my first hummingbird early this morning. A little late in the month. A male Ruby throat he only flitted around

For a few seconds. I will try and get a shot next time I see him. I got flowers ready. glad to see him, now that he’s found me maybe there will be more soon.

BTW, your flowers are beautiful! I'll keep an eye out for any pictures you post!
