I just saw a hummingbird!
I just now saw a hummingbird pass by, hovering briefly over the tops of the trees and bushes outside my porch!
It's the first one I've seen this year. I'm pretty sure it was a selasphorus rufus, which has one of the largest migrations of all the hummingbirds. They migrate from Guerrero, México to as far north as Southeast Alaska to breed and dine on wildflowers.
It looked kind of like this:

Wow. I felt like I just had a visit from a fellow long-traveller!
I think I need to get a feeder.

At the moment I'm reading Elizabeth Bear's Carnival, which is turning out to be even wilder and wackier than I thought possible. After hearing two strong reviewers rave independently over Bear's excursions into gender roles and a newly post-Singularity society, I couldn't resist, and it's been well worth it so far! I think you'll like it too.
