James Mattsson took some splendid photos today which are on the hummingbird
page <http://www.lauraerickson.com/Birds/NovemberHummingbird.html>. It was
very cold today, and I don't believe anyone caught her preening or
stretching at all. This concerns me, because birds stop preening and
stretching when stressed.
Tomorrow I will take Kelly Larson's advice and add some pureed mealworms to
one feeder and see how she likes that.

There is symbolic as well as actual beauty in the migration of
birds. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of
nature--the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after the winter.
--Rachel Carson
