Thanks donnas. You can get a free Photobucket account. You simply upload your pictures; I resize the picture in Photobucket so that it fits the page well (without expanding off to the right). You copy the tag, as shown in the picture below, directly into this thread. Here's another hummer shot; I took it at the same feeder at a different angle. I've had the impatiens there since May; I can't believe I've missed such colorful shots! Too bad it was at dusk; it came out kind of grainy :( At least I have a second male. He was also perched on the fence (the same spot that my regular frequents) while my regular male was at the feeder. I was surprised that one didn't chase away the other...

Loretta, FORTHERGILLA - you got it - at least one of the syllables begins with a "g"! My children took my car away and only returned it late last Saturday night. Since then, I've not been out of town but today took the plunge and drove to the garden center - and I'm still standing. Not too bad for an old lady. Thank you for asking - I'm feeling fine, except for suddenly becoming extremely tired once in a while - it was a piece of cake. The hospital - Morristown Memorial, was fantastic - even the food was good! It was great fun being the oldest patient on the maternity floor - you ladies might appreciate that and get a laugh out of it!

First, OMG. Perfect! :) Second, get yourself some Arnica cream. Usually health food stores, but more recently in mainstream drug stores. It is incredible in what it does for muscles. Sometimes swelling, too. It's an herb, so look for the highest concentration of arnica in the cream. Interestingly enough, yoga teachers and (get this) pro football sports doctors have been using it for years. So. More about the top. I cannot believe how lucky you were to find this perfect, beautiful piece. Right place, right time! Enjoy and feel better.
