I liked the Red Flame, the seedless Green (I think they’re called Thompson), the Zinfandel and Merlot. We have one Catawba vine now and the grapes aren’t quite ready yet.

When we lived in the desert, we had a pool in the backyard and a friend who liked to float around in it. The tangelo tree had a hummingbird feeder and one hummer who claimed the backyard as his territory. He apparently thought her head was a flower because he used to flutter around it all the time. He resided there for a couple of years. I didn’t know they lived that long. I should look that up.

Was she a red-head? I heard that hummingbirds love red! The one that visited us (twice now that I've seen) was warming up to one of our orange-colored lights (on a string). They sure are interesting birds.
