Freedom
We may not be free of worries and fears. Our thoughts are free.
We may not prevent people from bothering us. We are still free to leave people bothering us.
Can you do whatever you want? Can society restrict you from doing this or that? When you are miserable, did society offer helping hands? Why society has right to restrict you from doing this or that? Do what you like to do. Think what you like to think. As long as we don't hurt others.
Among millions of people in the world, this particular person enters your life and chose you to be nice to. In a good sunny or a sad rainy day, there is someone being sweet and cute, who warms your heart in a special way. When you are still breathing, enjoy the freedom of loving and being loved. In a good sunny day, say you love him/her. Love and cherish that person - and you know who that person is. :-)))))

Calliope - Beautiful Voice
Male Calliope Hummingbird |
Female Calliope Hummingbird |
The Calliope Hummingbird is the smallest breeding bird found in Canada and the United States. The only smaller species ever found in the U.S. is the Bumblebee Hummingbird, an accidental vagrant from Mexico. An adult Calliope Hummingbird can measure 7–10 cm (2.8–3.9 in) in length, span 11 cm (4.3 in) across the wings and weigh 2 to 3 g (0.071 to 0.11 oz). These birds have glossy green on the back and crown with white underparts. Their bill and tail are relatively short. The adult male has wine-red streaks on the throat, green flanks and a dark tail. Females and immatures have a pinkish wash on the flanks, dark streaks on the throat and a dark tail with white tips. The only similar birds are the Rufous Hummingbird and the Allen's Hummingbird, but these birds are larger with more distinct and contrasting rufous markings on tail and flanks, and longer central tail feathers.
Calliope Hummingbird is migratory bird, generally leaving their breeding grounds earlier than most birds to take advantage of the late-summer wildflowers in the mountains of western North America. They are believed to be the smallest-bodied long distance migrant in the world. Despite its unique characteristics in the avian world, Calliope Hummingbird has not been well studied, leaving much of its life history unknown.
