If you know me, you know I love my birds! Wilma and I are always trying to steal each others birds by giving the best food (especially the hummingbirds) ...but I guess there's enough to go around. ....Anyway......I heard that if you want to keep the ants out of your hummingbird feeder just put a little vaseline on the rod going towards the feeder and they won't go in...so, I thought it was worth a try. The other evening Mike and I were on the patio (watching the birds and other creatures) when a red-headed woodpecker decided to sit on the pole that my feeder was on. As we watched him, he did a slow slide down the pole, kind of like a very slow fireman.....only upside down....what a weird sight! Guess that proves it not only keeps ants away but woodpeckers also!

"A Big Puddle"

This is just a quick note to make you smile. Karen always makes me smile!
I told her yesterday that she should have more company over since her apartment looks so cute and homey......She remarked that it was so hot out that her friends would just melt...and all I'd have left would be a "BIG PUDDLE OF COMPANY!" hmmmmm, interesting....a puddle of company......thanks Karen.
