That sure is a beauty geetar BocceBall69er! Do you remember me telling you I saw the same exact one in the pawn shop but in Candy Apple Red for about $1,500. How much did you pay for yours and did you get it brand new?

Yea blacky my friend....Got it New, freshly picked. I think you would need to add a bunch of pennies to that price. She wasn't cheap.....But O so worth it.

Beautiful guitar..

Thanks TR... I had been neglecting it a bit, always playing my Gibson's. I just realized, I haven't put it down since I took the picture last month. It is a beauty, and even more comfortable.

That's the way a guitar should feel my friend. That's awesome.

Anyone know what species this little guy/gal might be?







I was just checking to see if I had another batch of blueberries ripe, and ready to pick, when I stumbled in to this tiny little thing...just chillin in a high bush blueberry.

Hummmm, how big is it?

Almost looks like a baby hummingbird, or Gnatcatcher.

Tiny. Like smaller than my thumb. I don’t think that the leaves on the blueberry bush are much more than 2.5 inches long....
Hummingbird came to mind when I first came across it.

Beak says hummingbird....and it's so small. Yup, that's my guess.

Took this pic of a hummy about two weeks ago. Last night I was on the porch yapping on the phone and I kept getting buzzed by one. They are so cool.

Thanks bud!! Not quite as light as the SG, but so very smooth and comfy.

But.......they are both being neglected because of my recent acquisition. They know I'll be back, so they forgive.

Nice pic!
I have seen a couple around recently. Never seen one sitting still though. I could have picked it up.
It had no color to it, and it did look pretty beat. It’s gone now.
My first reaction was hummingbird... but the ones around here usually have some color to them(greenish hues etc), don’t they?

Yup, the ruby throated hummingbird. The adults are green, and the male is green with red throat patch. It's the only hummy in our area.

I took a picture of a baby one a few years ago. It had the same pose as yours....I'll have to dig that picture up.

After studying your picture a bit more....notice the dots on its neck?? Yup, I'm now quite certain. Baby Ruby Throated hummingbird. 99.9% on my BabyBird-O Meter

Thanks!
I hope it survives. It is nowhere to be found now.

This little lady snuck up behind me a few weeks ago while we were on a camping trip. She turned out to be quite annoying after while and wouldn't leave us alone looking for handouts. The second picture is her standing at the camper door two feet away.
