All,
As usual George knows what he's talking about. I don't know what is going on
elsewhere, but here in North Carroll a breeze has picked up and temps have
dropped about 10 degrees in the last hour. At this rate we could have snow
overnight.
    So to get in some outside time before winter hits, I took my plate out
onto the patio and sat there having dinner with some hummingbirds. Had not
seen any for a couple days, but that doesn't mean they weren't around. There
were 2 feeding at the same time for a while - that seldom happens here
without a fight breaking out.

So follow George's advice and keep the feeders full.

Now I'll quick take out the garbage. Sure hope the truck can get thru the
snow to pick it up in the morning.
