Thanks, and you have a good night, too!
Words that capture a hummingbird–such a task and done so well.

The word “thrum” gets me every time! Such a cool word. I used to have hummingbird feeders and would love to watch them from my porch. This poem is a great reminder of what wonderful little birds they are.
I want to say to hummingbirds, “Won’t you have a seat?”

My humming birds suspended by one of two feeders salute you.
