From our dining table we can look out into the yard. We see the mail box, the road, the birdbath. We can see my hyacinth beans just goin to town. They are growing and twining rapidly. The entire time we ate this evening we watched a hummingbird gorge himself on nectar from the purple bean plant. He/She left for a while, and then came back. We do see lots of wildlife, both big and small around here. We almost always have some kind of bird join us for a meal so to speak. Either in the flowers or in the birdbaths. It is so much fun.

I've noticed a lot of hummingbirds the last few days. I think they are migrating? Maybe. I'm glad you have such a nice view to enjoy.

You're so lucky. I get to see mourning doves and little sparrows now and then but this season I heard a humming bird once,

Nature gives us so much joy, in beauty, in adventures, with wildlife, etc.

We have squirrels here who like to get up close and personal sometimes.

I usually only see sparrows or crows in the back yard. This morning I watched a robin and a mockingbird catching bugs in the front yard for quite a while after the fog lifted around 9 am.

That's the beauty of having gardens. I have many fruit trees where I always see hummingbirds. It is said that by tradition if you see a hummingbird inside a house it is a sign of good luck.

We just learned that the deer are raiding the bird feeder at night
