Three hummingbirds were buzzing around this planting bed, including one that stopped long enough for a photograph.

SAN LEANDRO, CA — Miyo Burnett has a planting bed in her garden with onion, tomato, and nasturtium. Thursday morning she was treated to the sight of three hummingbirds sampling the blossoms for nectar. She managed to snap a photo of one of the speedy birds.

Thank you for sharing, Miyo!
