bert
this is my buddy bert.
every time i study on our deck he sits down on the treetop right next to me to chirp me the song of his people.
while he really seems to enjoy my company, i know: deep down inside he is desperately looking for a girlfriend of his own kind. to woo the ladies in the area he goes beserk doing his mating dance! he climbs up high into the air to do breakneck dive-bombs - dozens of times in a row. doing this he emits high-pitched squeaks like a crazybird. wheeee! these "yells" are, as i just learned from cam, actually produced by the stiff breeze vibrating his tail feathers. isn't that cool? i think he’s SO cool!
and i'm sure the right hummingbird ladies will appreciate that, too! so, if you know a down to earth, worthy kolibri-girl please let me know - so we can set them up. he's a chill dude, i can vouch for him! YAY FOR BERT!
well, hello mr. kolibri.
the hummingbirds seem to love the lemon tree on our deck.
