That angry bird look always gives me the giggles.

These were taken a couple weeks ago after record rainfall in the area. We are currently on pace for a repeat, with torrential rains this weekend

Hummingbirds have vicious tempers, they are always fighting and chasing each other. We have three feeders, and they'll fight over the same one. It's like a bunch of kids.

There too, huh? We broke the yearly precipitation record a month ago. Does make one suspect something's up, doesn't it?

UPDATE: WaPo: Summer Rainfall

I think today is our 7th consecutive day of rain, give or take. It's been a record-breaking Fall for us

Another band competition last night. No rain, but it did **** for a few minutes.

10 bands cancelled because of the cold and wind (36° and 17mph wind), 4 performed.

I had the DA* 50-135 on, so wasn't concerned with the flakes.

What an exceptionally beautiful image Tom. I had to look at it a few times to appreciate it properly.
