Late this afternoon, when I went outside to enjoy this wonderful mild weather we've been having, I was prepared.

Good morning, Mrs. Hummingbird,
It’s nice you came this way
Come on in and join me

From my kitchen window this is what I saw this morning. The pictures are not the greatest because they were taken through the windows.

My mountain ash and apple trees are really pretty this time of year. With the fruit ripening and turning red I think it's just as pretty as in the spring when they both flower.
