Hummingbirds

Apparently I lost a day. I emphatically told my husband it was Friday today which made him happy until he found out that I was wrong. I told him that he should not trust someone who has been on Vycodin for the last couple days after my trip to the dentist!

Only allowed to have soft foods, so ice cream and mashed potatoes have been popular. All better now...Just rack up another few thousand that I have spent on our teeth lately.

I received a tripod and remote for my camera in the mail a couple days go, the better for shooting the hummingbirds that come to my window I am hoping!
Yes, I am really looking like a dweeb now! This picture was taken with the new iphone 4s. It apparently has a better camera on it, which I can see that it really does...



But, I have to get them used to that now. I only managed to get one single solitary shot yesterday of one of the little birds. My odds today are a bit better already, I think I have 3!


I have been making videos of all my recent trips, and updating web sites, etc for the last bit getting ready to go back to the islands.

I have been going back and forth for hours on trying to figure out what to do with my personal blog here. Since I mostly post pictures, it has been quite easy just uploading the pictures to facebook and then commenting on them.

I am trying to decide whether that will be sufficient for me, or if I should get my own wordpress and maybe integrate it with smugmug for my pictures, although a lot of my pictures are not good, they just capture the moment for the blog, so I think they may look ridiculous showing up in some fancy smug mug gallery!

I know not everyone uses Facebook though, but since I was not posting on here, it has forced my husband to get a facebook account so he could read my posts!

I have to narrow down the amount of time I have to spend on the computer, as i overextended myself with a few things keeping up.. I will figure it out I am sure and just as quickly switch directions next month..

We go back to the islands at the end of the month...I hear dribs and drabs of crews going back quite a bit now.
