hello Bev, and everyone

wow, heart rate very fast for hummers! made my pulse start raing just reading that, glad ours not like that.

142pm phoebe started quivering-shaking around for about 20 seconds in nest, so cute then just stopped and sat quietly.

Phoebe had left the nest 151pm, saw in back of trellis something running all around, looked like squirrel, Phoebe chasing it all over back and forth! see the different caps below, not sure but ollked like squirrl,
