    I had a green heron visit my little pond on Saturday and I was able to snap a few pics from the dining room window. Today I was out taking some close-ups of the red yucca blooms when a hummingbird came right in for a meal. I was able to snap a few before he zoomed away. The dragonfly was visiting my pond and let me get closer than I thought it would.
