Sunday was, of course, the Superbowl. Rose and John hosted a party
that was a lot of fun. There were significant amounts of food available
for hours of noshing. I had to force myself to move away from the
popcorn and the chips. Rose and John bought a really cool house last
year. Their backyard is excellent for the viewing of birds.
These are Goldfinches.
I believe this is a Costa's Hummingbird. It was an overcast day, so there wasn't enough sun to make his iridescence light up.
This is his tree, where he likes to sit. I could not get a decent picture of him. Tiny cameras don't have view finders anymore, and without wearing my reading glasses, I can't tell what the camera is focusing on. I generally just point in the general direction of the subject, take a lot of photos and hope one is good.
This is purloined from the internet.
A rabbit down by the wash.
There was a pretty good sunset, as well.
It was fun and surprising. When we lived in Seattle, the Seahawks were a terrible team. To see them win the Superbowl was just surreal.
Lovely critters :) I didn't get to see any critters. Jim said he saw a dead armadillo as we can towards Austin. I missed it. oh well.
