Hummingbird
Hummingbirds keep coming to our place these days. Sweet.
Sorry for the background sound.
Japanese news (podcasts) were on.
We also see battles among them sometimes.
One of them seems not to want to share his place with others.

My basil plants are doing fine as well.

That's Japanese herb, "Ao-shiso".
I missed you so much since last summer...!!!

But the tomato plants aren't doing very well.

There are lot of flowers blooming, but no fruits at all. I guess the soil bed isn't deep enough for them. Sorry...!
But the chive besides them is doing very good. I just have to harvest it more often.

Breeding Time
The morning sky on the way to the Antelope Island. Looks like a autumn sky to me. Well, it's definitely not here, though.

In the Antelope Island. There was a nest of swallows under the roof of a barn near the beach. Baby swallows are waiting for food...!

The mom and dad are working so hard to feed them...!

Beautiful Bird
Most of the birds were unknown to me because I was never interested much. But now, I can't say that anymore because of this environment in Utah, and, of course, because I'm married to a biologist.
One of the most beautiful birds for me: Ibis.

What are you looking for?
![White-faced Ibis](http://www.webkammer.net/mt-img/blog/20120715b.jpg)
Oh, I've never seen it that close. He (She?) has a white head!
![White-faced Ibis](http://www.webkammer.net/mt-img/blog/20120715c.jpg)
Flew away when I tried to get closer...
But the flying figure is also beautiful!!
