maybe it is, maybe it isn’t

July 6, 2010

Earlier, I’d mentioned that Sparky seemed to be in the last stages of a molt. Over the holiday weekend, we noticed what appeared to be a new hummer at the feeder.

Last year at certain times, Sparky would change to what I called his courting colors. His gorget colors extended to his head, and he would sit all puffed out, swaying from side to side to attract the Missus when he wasn’t doing the stunt flying. But then, once back at the feeder, he looked his normal sleek, mostly green and white self.

This newcomer might or might not be Sparky. His head and throat are a deep magenta all the time, it seems. If indeed it is the new, improved Sparky, he must have requested a custom color job on the molt.

But near sunset, something magical happens. When the light is just right, a lot of that magenta turns to gold.

  5. This notice Liu Jun, the original designer is this dress is Valentino, as well as the old man’s autograph, it is chic. Foothold will also, true religion jeans on the TV drama dress looked up and down, making a fuss, but honestly, Liu Governor’s appreciation for the level of fashion, indeed, less of even this dress for what occasion, Liu Jun is not know much. It seems to make up the lesson. With his rise in status, the future foreign on occasion, will also attend more and more.
