I do seem to be feeling more like myself today; with 3 doses of antibiotics under my belt I am definitely on the mend - and even my finger looks and feels MUCH better this morning.

 On our morning walk Brownie and I stopped by the swimming pool to check on the hummer babies.  They were both out of the nest, but only one of them, having mastered the art of flight, was flying around from branch to branch in the upper reaches of the tree.  Its sibling, however, seemed quite content to just sit near the nest and hang out.  Migration will be starting soon, so I hope that little one gets in some practice before the big trip!
