Like your feeder — may try one.

Zillions of hummingbirds here in at least 2 different species. Pretty badass for as tiny and cute as they are. We can't go within 10 ft of their feeder or our small garden fountain without getting buzzed repeatedly.

When it comes to spring color, we took the nuclear option this year — a visit to the Carlsbad Flower Fields.

These are all Ranunculus varieties from 2 days ago. The Carlsbad Flower Fields is a 4-generation family floriculture operation shipping Ranunculus flowers and bulbs and poinsettia plants all over the world.

Being immersed in all that bright color was quite an experience!

It looks simply amazing, I would love to wander among such flowers!
