Ok I think I’m done with the hummingbird videos for a while. Here’s one where the sun is right to get the iridescence of the feathers. The males are smaller and have the neck tufts and there is a gravid female that comes in towards the end of the scene.
I grabbed a low patio table to get more height on the tripod and so I got this much closer scene. There are some very good examples of hummingbird calls in this one. At one point one of the birds calls so closely to the microphone, that she overloads it!
Hummingbirds seem fearless. They fly right up to you and check you out.
I don’t think it’s a lack of fear. I think it’s that they instinctively understand that we live at different frame rates. What are you going to do? GRAB him? We must seem glacial creatures to them.
So here’s a couple of minutes of unedited feeder action.
There is a new site in the stable of my phpbay sites and I’m announcing it here. ArcheryHunting-Equipment.com is, as the name implies, a shopping site for bow hunting and archery equipment. Just got it whipped into opening day shape and hit it with some social bookmarks and made page three of Google in about an hour. Cool.
I look in the mirror and I see this old guy and I can’t believe it’s me.
I don’t feel like that guy. And I don’t really know what exactly that means. I don’t know what the “feeling” is that doesn’t match to that old guy, but something’s not right.
I still laugh like I always have. I still do stupid shit like I always have. I’m still in awe of the world like I always have been. I still fall in love like I always have.
I’m going to promote these new expansions in the usual ways and then I’m going to ket it sit and see if I can pick up some traffic while I work on my other sites. Eventually, I am going to expand the site to take advantage of all the top Health and Beauty search keywords and also all the higher level categories like Bath and Body.
So January was my best ever month in total eBay affiliate sales and then February sucked but so far this month I am on track for another good month. As soon as I get to the point where my bad months will cover my monthy nut, I’m going to quit the day job and do the Internet Marketing thing full time. I can’t wait!
