Hummingbirds! Or Maybe One Hummingbird

This afternoon, and evening, I've seen a hummingbird come to the feeder. Or maybe several, all of the same species. Either way: The hummingbird feeder's being used.

Hummingbird Feeder's Out

A few minutes ago I re-filled the birdbath - 2/3 of it, with #1 daughter taking care of the last third - and set out the hummingbird feeder.

I'm getting that feeder out a little late this year - but I trust that the hummers will find it. The question is, how long will that take?

Technical Difficulties: Or Maybe Operator Error

If you tried viewing this webcam in the last seven hours or so, and it was offline: Sorry about that!

It's back. The software at my end was, as far as I can tell, which isn't very (I'll explain after this paragraph), was working okay - but I'd lost the internet connection.

I caught some sort of bug, slept through most of Tuesday: and am still not feeling even close to 'up to par.'

It's been raining for days - and previous experience tells me that there can be issues with internet service in this area when that happens. The situation is getting better each year - which tells me that the maintenance folks are on the job. (Thanks!)

I hope the webcam stays online for the rest of today. But, we'll see. And, more to the point, I'll be keeping a (somewhat bleary) eye on it.
