Andrea, mostly that is all I am having emptied into my brain lately. I don't know what is wrong, but maybe, it is the fact that I am not able to get up early. Thank you for the nice review. Sara K.

No hummingbirds in Australia but I have watched videos of them. Those wings going so fast while hovering grabbing nectar is amazing. Your poem is amazing too.

Humming birds are so attractive, the way they draw nectar from flowers with their needle like beaks. Unfortunately we rarely see them in our place. Beautiful haiku.

Valsa, they are fast and somewhat allusive here, but I am blessed to see them. If I put out a feeder, they will be at it all the time. Thank you for your visit and kind review. Sara K.
