Willie had no trouble finding the feeder at 6:33 a.m. but he had a lot
of difficulty hitting a port on the feeder. The wind is so strong that
there is sugar water blown almost 10 feet across the deck and the feeder
is rocking around like a ship in a storm. But after the quick visit to
be sure the feeder was there, he persisted and finally sat and drank on
the third visit. With the knowledge God put in him, he no doubt is
aware colder weather is coming and he will drink much more than normal
today. It's amazing to me how much wisdom there is in the little brain
of a hummer that never opened a book! Makes me feel comparatively dumb
after 20 years of formal education.
