Dear Constance, You beautifully capture the fleeting and magical presence of these delicate creatures in our gardens. The wonderful word pictures and attention to detail create a perfect scene of their grace and uniqueness. We need to appreciate the beauty and simplicity of nature's wonders, even in the brief moments they grace our lives. Yes, this is an enchanting glimpse into the world of the hummingbird. Beautiful! - Daniel
