[eyesew@xxxxxxxxx (Virginia Curtis)]

He's already begun his morning ritual of coming at 6:15 (although he was
a couple of minutes late today) and getting one drink, then leaving.  He
then repeats the one-drink-every minute about 7 or 8 times before
settling into his 3-4 appearances per hour during the rest of the day.  

Yesterday 7 birders came to see him and he gave everyone great views and
big smiles.  What a beauty !  We'll be home today by 1:00 p.m. and if he
stays true to his routine, he'll be active until 3:30 p.m., so come and
see him.  We're on the west side of Smithville at 501 Hurricane Ridge
Road.  This road turns off Route 70 right beside Bert Driver's Nursery.
We are the second house on the left, a white house with a green deck.
