Taking Flight

On Tuesday when the temperature was a wamr, yet brisk 60 degrees.... we released our little friends.  Sad to see them go.  I missed watching their antics.  Did you know that their probiscus is longer than their legs?  Fascinating to watch them drink through their own portable-attached-personal straw!  Wonder if I can get one of those things when I am old and feeble.  Hmm.

One of our little friends, we think it was Sunday, decided not to leave on Tuesday.  We put him back in the habitat and released him on the following afternoon.  Todd #1 and Todd #2 took flight immediately although they looked like Woodstock trying to fly away.  All wobbly and what not.


It was unanimous after our final friend was sent back out into the BIG WIDE WORLD- that we want to do this again!  (but in the spring when it is warmer!)
