The orchid people are amazing. Maybe one day I will learn their ways. They are lucky, there is no app that will find an orchid for you, yet. And they are smart, they keep the location of their orchids secret (usually). 9/

Nature is vast and contains multitudes. There's stuff going on in your backyard that the app can't tell you about. What do the Song Sparrows on your block eat? How big is their territory? Is it bigger or smaller than the Song Sparrows in the park? Where do they nest? When do they sing? 10/
Every person who spends a bit of time actually watching and listening to nature knows things that no app knows, and in fact aren't written down anywhere. And never will be, there will never be enough bytes. Anyway, rant over. 11/11
I added a hummingbird feeder to my yard recently. Now I frequently see hummingbirds perched on my garden trellis. I don’t know what kind they are. Maybe someday I’ll learn. For now, their mere presence is delightful enough.
I love hummingbirds. As to what kind you've got, I encourage you to figure it out for yourself! 😁
