As I'm laying on my swing on the patio, my ruby throated friends stopped by. There's  3 distinct ones I can pick out and I'm sure there are a few more.  One I call Spot, because he has a small spot on his throat is the brave one that flies in my face and checks me and my book out whenever I'm out. Squeaky is a nervous female that constantly watches and chirps as she feeds and then there's a quiet one that looks at me, surfs the flowers I planted then has a perch on the feeder and drinks calmly.
Love my feathered friends!
