Air Show

If you live around here you probably thought my title was referring to the Oregon International Air Show that took place this weekend in Hillsboro. Instead, I enjoyed an Air Show in my own backyard.

The Rufous Hummers are back with a vengeance. Every August they show up and take over the garden. I had a hard time telling how many were out there the other evening, but at one point I thought I counted five. They are chasing each other all over the place and perching in their secret (or not so secret) spots to keep an eye on their flower patches.
