Even with no mail Sunday or today, I still walk to the mailboxes. Now that the sun is rising later and later... I can't let Charlie out as early. So I walk in the pre dawn dusk instead.

It is a humid morning, what clouds there were are scattered, and with lack of sunlight grey. Even the light from the sun was muted.

Going down hill is a nice easy walk. I had hoped the mother deer & her baby would be around, but I didn't see them. Instead I heard & saw my favorite Cuckoo. It's been hanging around since Early May.
I was thrilled to be serenaded up the hill.

hadn't gone very far when I noticed a Humming Bird was flying fairly close to my face. I means less then a foot at it's closest.

I kept my eyes on it as it flew a bit away to my right then my left, then back to a close up by the face.

This Hummer stayed with me all the way up the hill. It finally flew away when I reached my
driveway.

What an experience. DO I dare think it recognized me? I do have Hummers that fly in my face when I'm reading or taking Dog Free Time - DFT - on my porch.

8-) Happy Fourth
