Sitting out on my back deck reading the Sunday paper I had a very close encounter with a hummingbird. He first visited my hanging baskets of Lantana flowers. A few minutes later I heard a buzz nearby, peeked around the side of my paper and came face to face with a little hummingbird hovering about 5 inches from a brightly colored grocery ad. Incredible creatures, especially close up!
