THE HUMMINGBIRDS AND ME


In the summer I put Hummingbird feeders out
One day while in garden she touched me on the nose
The hummingbird feeder was empty
I thought they went south for the winter
So I filled the feeder up to the top
It soon emptied without stop
One day as I was feeding dropped sugar water in hand
The hummingbird ate from my palm
Now I feed all winter long
There are five to six buzzing around all day
They come to my bedroom window to play
The will fly up close spinning wings touch my cheek
But from a tiny buzzing bee they will retreat.
Remember when you feed a humminbird they depend on you

1/4 sugar to 3/4 water
No coloring needed
microwave two minutes
you have friends for life
Put it outside bedroom window
A morning and night show
A pet you do not have to cage
They bring friends
