An Additional Bloom: Flower of the Day, Apr 29, 2021
This little vermillion flycatcher bird loves to perch on the agave blooms to put their vivid hues to shame. I snapped this with my phone as my camera was hiding in a basket in the house, sulking over its lack of use since I started carrying my iPhone in lieu of it. The photo would have been better with the camera, but alas, I could not have fit my camera into my pocket so probably would have had no photo at all.

Spying on Birds
A little bird flew around for an hour today with a balled-up Kleenex in her beak, looking for a place to build her nest. Her mate accompanied her and they investigated the plumeria tree for a long time but it is without leaves at the moment. In a few weeks it would be a possibility. Her mate then stood lookout on the Plumeria while she investigated the bamboo and bougainvillea. Finally, she settled on the big cactus..It was fun observing.
Then a vermillion flycatcher took over the lookout branch. If that is a Kleenex I dropped, some of my DNA will be in the nest!!
