More Pretty Hummingbird Feeders

OK.  So, I talked about how great hummingbird feeders are last week.  And, in my travels I found some beautiful hummingbird feeders that I just had to share.  For those of you who want something a little extra fancy or special....these are just for you!  Find the unique hummingbird feeder just right for you.

Let's Get a Hummingbird Feeder!

I haven't done the research, I admit, on what season is the best for hummingbirds.  But I can tell you that my mom lives out in the country and she has two big, beautiful picture windows that each have a hummingbird feeder in front (on the outside of course).  The hummingbirds visit constantly.  It is very relaxing and fun to watch.

The feeders get interest from every visitor to my mom's home as the hummingbirds that frequent the feeders have distinct personalities.  The bully.  The hummingbird that tries to steal a drink and leave before the bully comes over.  And one little hummingbird that fights with the bully to get her drink.

It will relax you and be very enjoyable.  Imagine the fun you will have with your hummingbird feeder.

What to Do When Stung by a Wasp

Wasps are a definite nuisance.  Most people do not like to see them at all.  Wasps stings just add to the general hatred of wasps. 

Most people are not allergic to a wasp sting and will only suffer the initial pain and general discomfort, itchiness, slight swelling at the sting site, and a bit of pain.  It should not cause many problems.

However, there are those who are allergic to a wasp sting.  For those who are severely allergic to wasp stings, they may suffer from anaphylactic shock.  If you find that you feel sick or the location of the wasp sting is swelling beyond what a normal bee sting would....contact your doctor immediately.  If you feel sick and keep getting sicker, go to the doctor's office or emergency room.  Do not wait for an appointment.  Go immediately.

Some of the things that you should do when stung by a wasp are:

• Keep the area that was stung lower than the rest of the body. 
• Apply ice or a bag of frozen vegetables to the affected area. 
• Avoid scratching or squeezing the affected area.
• Keep the area clean with soap and water.
• If the area is very itchy, apply a paste of baking soda and water overnight.

These are some of the things to look out for and do when you or someone you love is stung by a wasp.  Use your best judgment, and if in doubt, see a doctor.
