To pick up where Jane & Dennis Coskren left off (was it you two I saw on my way
in as you were heading out?), the hummingbird was present from about 7:10 -
7:50 this morning, providing terrific views. It spent time in and around the
feeder and the salvia (for those of you botanically challenged like me, the
salvia is the plant with the white sign on it that says "Salvia .....").
The bonus bird for the morning was an Ovenbird. It was skulking behind the
salvia and along the wall of the Arts & Industries building. A pair of
sapsuckers was also present.

The Smithsonian hummingbird was there at its spanking-new feeder at 6:45
this morning; for which we are giving thanks. It gave wonderful views to
Jane and Dennis Coskren, Michael and Paul O'Brien, Rob Hilton, and Lisa
Shannon.>
