I am so happy to say today we spotted the first humming bird for this year!! It came flying in to find a feeder and I heard the familiar buzz!! I didn't have my hummingbird feeders out and the Hummingbird thought that one of my pink regular bird feeders was a hummingbird feeder. So now I know, I will have to get that put out tomorrow!!
Also I took some cute pictures of some Chipmunks in my yard today. There were two just sitting on rocks sunbathing and snacking on what ever they had stored in their cheeks. They were really cute. Then later, one came down into my rock garden and decided to see what was down there. I hope that it doesn't find the seeds that I planted and cause problems with that!! After I came inside for the evening I was just finishing putting my daughter down for her nap and I looked out my sliding doors and saw a chippie out on my porch eating some seeds from one of my bell shaped seed blocks. I opened the door so carefully and got some pictures, but when he noticed I was there he got scared and jumped down onto my porch. Needless to say, he got stuck somewhat on my porch and was running around until he figured it out. What a silly little chippie!! I will add the pictures on here once I upload them to my photo albums!

There are two Chippies in this picture, one on the log (left) and one on the rock (right).



Little Chippie grooming himself...so cute!

Look how stuffed it's cheeks are!! What a cute little Chippie!!
The chipmunk came back onto my porch today and at some point knocked the bird seed bell off my porch. I took some super cute pictures of him again. I will put them up tomorrow. Also my friend the hummingbird visited (well actually did a quick fly-by). I will definitely have to get the feeder out tomorrow.
Thanks for all the great comments from everyone! I just LOVE getting feedback as well as reading other blogs!! Happy gardening!
