Winter months are mild in California and local hummingbirds continue to visit frequently. We supplement their daily intake from hanging feeders and enjoy spotting our feathered friends year round. Join in! It’s easy, rewarding and you’ll be surprised how quickly they find your feeders. http://www.hummingbirds.net/feeders.html

28 Days of Autumn ~ Infographic summary
Thanks everyone for your input and participation concerning my recent “28 Days of Autumn” photo series. I created a couple Infographics revealing some interesting demographic insights by examining parallel social media results and findings generated across Facebook, WordPress, Pinterest and Twitter. I was delighted to see a 22% trend increase in visits and traffic on my blog and amazed by the international exposure and shared global passion for fall season. I’ll wrap up and finish a leaf and color survey and video compilation this weekend. One of my 2014 online projects is to promote, host and cultivate a new Facebook business site to increase customer foot traffic for a local nursery and possibly leverage, find and engage new prospects and customers with similar visual seasonal promotions and campaigns.
