It's bad manners to stick your tongue out...

    It's amazing how fierce these guys are. They will actually bump into each other in mid-air chittering the whole time. Thanks for the comment.

    And nary a feather flies and no one ever gets hurt. You'd think they could easily impale one another with those beaks. :D

    Your hummer shots are getting better all the time. thumb.gif No flowers this round though?
