Wednesday May 2, 2012


Wednesday May 2/12 update
Bella made a bunch of appointments today and forgot again that today was Rosa the cleaning lady’s day, so I am housebound again for most of the day.  Her main appointments are to get her teeth cleaned at the Coopera dentist in San Joaquin, then to a cooking class, so she wasn’t home until supper time.
Rosa came early and started cleaning right away.  My only request to her is to put everything back in its original place.  We hate having to reposition everything after a cleaning session.   She actually worked some extra time today so I paid her a bit extra.  That is quite a change from the last cleaning lady.
To pass the time I am trying to move the feeder closer, right on the window track to see if I can train them to eventually enter the room, wouldn’t that be neat?   Actually one did come right in and fed on inside flowers where I could have touched him easily but I wasn’t expecting him, he snuck in on me and I wasn’t prepared with the camera, darn it.  I did get a few nice shots today though and three videos.
In between all this we had a 10 minute deluge, right about the time that Rosa would normally have finished so her overtime was a good thing or she would have been drenched.
Tonight the neighbor lady is to pay up her $20 too.  We will be very relieved when that happens.   We don’t want any bad feelings in the neighborhood.  I am confident she will come through now.
A little hummer just did it to me again, popping in for about 30 seconds and sampling all 4 flowers!  The little shit knew I didn’t have my camera in hand and also knew I would sit still as a statue so I wouldn’t interrupt his meal.  I wonder how big their brain is??   One of these days………
Then, I am all set up, I have lured the little guy in and he is just popping his head above the feeder, I am about to press my shutter button to record,… and Pancho meows at my door and scares him away….  Ugh…
Sorry that today is all about hummers again but I am really happy with my work today and I decided to go the extra mile and clean up the background on these, it makes them that much more impressive.
Enjoy the pics and the videos.    That was today’s excitement.    Hugs to all.
