Note to self: relocate hummingbird feeder. Too many wasps attracted to it.

I walked out my back door yesterday and got a nasty sting on the shoulder by a wasp. Didn't even see it coming. Upon inspection of the back side of the house I found three new wasp nests, and I'm sure they're locating near the feeder, because I see them on it frequently. I'll go get another one of those shepherd's crooks and put it further out from the house. It's hanging at the far corner under the patio cover right now. Ouch!!! I have a standard bird seed feeder back there also--too bad some of those birds don't eat wasps.

Yard looks great after a full day of mowing and most of the trimming is finished.
