I've been out and checked on the black vulture. It is GONE. No sign of struggle - no feathers, no nothing. Hopefully it got better and left on its own. While tracking around the pond I see we have this tiny little duck. I think it is the "least grebe"? It sure is tiny as it looks like a duckling instead of a duck. The #2 pix is the least duct with our domestic ducks.

My red pineapple sage started blooming about a week ago (finally) and I went out early this morn in hopes of getting a picture of the hummingbird on the pineapple sage. I heard the hummer, but did not see it there in that area, but it may have been after the tubular flowers of the cardinal vine instead.

Always fun to watch the birds. Me & the dog.......... This dog will not ride my golf cart, she will jump on and then jump off when the vehicle starts, but NEVER can she be bribed to ride. This morn she jumped on and sat on my foot while I was waiting for the hummers. She's a hoot!
