Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris)
sipping the nectar-like solution from our feeder, that you can see through our living room window. I was sitting by the door in my wheelchair waiting for a hummingbird to go to the feeder, when all of a sudden one of them flew one-foot from the door and hovered there for 15 seconds, staring at me the whole time. It was an interspecies communication!! Was it thanking me for the false-nectar? I want to think so, but I doubt it. I did smile at the bird and thanked her for visiting me. Damn, I love hummingbirds!

An Autumn Hokku
Early fall morning;
A hummingbird stares at me...
Hovering close by!
To me, and many others who go by the Natural Calendar, Autumn began on August 1st. The equinox is mid-autumn, and fall ends on Oct. 31st, Halloween.
