Reminds me of something I was going to post a coupla days ago, but
forgot....
Walking down Euclid toward Van Buren, I passed a bush that was full of
little blue berries and bushtits - more of the former than the latter,
but psychologically speaking, not by all that much. And on the ground
under the bush were a number of flowering bulbs - dunno the name, but
they have stems holding 3" long orange flowers shaped like inverted
saxophones - and each spray of flowers had two or three bushtits on it....
I stood on the sidewalk for what musta been ten entranced minutes before
they adjourned to another bush somewhere else.
