Hummingbird August

in bounteous blooms
where rapture and beauty meet
in green parkland days

a colorful blur
gone past the edge of my sight
sweet humming I hear

but mellow sunshine
seems to overpower all
in the time of birds

Amazing birds in design, lucky you to be able to see them and hear them, and then summarise them in these beautiful Haiku's, lovely . . . : )

Hello Evelyn Buehler, they are small bids, they fly quickly. They are my favourite birds. Blessings Darlene. Enjoy your day.

Hello Darlene, I am sorry for the tardiness of my reply. I just saw this. To answer your question, I have copied and pasted the answer from the internet: Brightly-colored flowers that are tubular hold the most nectar, and are particularly attractive to hummingbirds. These include perennials such as bee balms, columbines, daylilies, and lupines; biennials such as foxgloves and hollyhocks; and many annuals, including cleomes, impatiens, and petunias. Have a nice evening! :)
