The Hummingbird Who Lives In the Front Yard

There are at least two. Very different from the guys in the back yard. I stood out there for maybe fifteen minutes, watching them carry on. A couple times one hovered right in front of me, whirring about four feet away, staring at me as I was staring back. They seem very inquisitive.

We did a bold thing and ventured over the hill to have lunch at Dish-Dash in Sunnyvale, a mid-Eastern restaurant we like a lot. Both of us were so stir crazy--two people who do not like to stay indoors all day. It was smokier over there, but we were mainly in the restaurant, dipping our fingers in all kinds of yummy delicacies involving eggplant and lots of olive oil. It was a good outing and much needed.
