The two hummingbirds must not like each other. Once or twice a day I see these two hummingbirds. One is usually heading for the nectar and then another appears and chases the other away. I could never figure out whether either make it to the feeder. One is always in hot pursuit of the other. Maybe one feeds when the other is asleep. I just don’t know. I just get a kick out of watching them chase each other. Every time.

They could of been swallows. I saw dozens alight on that wire and swirl above. I never saw swallows migrate before. It was early morning and they were over a mile away from water. If I had to guess, they were cliff swallows. I spotted them going through the “back way’ into town. I was surprised to see them. Now is the time I usually see flocks of small blackbirds come through. I still saw a hummingbird feed on my nectar today. At least one has not decided to migrate. Temperatures have fallen–the seventies. Summer does not end for another three weeks. There is no doubt Autumn has come already.
