I have to agree with ya'll - now when I'm in the yard I look like the exorcist chick - my head is on a swivel with every flutter I catch out of the corner of my eye. It's plumb incredible what all is going on in the outdoors when you stop to take a real look.

Today I was chasing hummers and found a place to lie down under the feeder - and learned that lots of tiny things visit the feeder in addition to the hummers :) I also saw dragonflies, and a Red Spotted Purple almost landed on me. She later came back to pose :) It almost looks fake she got so flat on the deck railing. But I got another one a few moments later with her upright.

I'll post under-hummer-tummy pics later, gotta run right now.
