From Kay Voss

Thought you all might enjoy this.......

The hummingbird doing rolls chasing a bug is really something!!! And the night 
scenes w/the bats in the moonlight on those blooming cactus are unreal. 
be sure and watch closely (at around 2 min 40 sec) and check
out the baby bat under its mama. Unreal. If you never knew what goes on in the
garden when you aren't paying attention... 
Watch this - some of the finest photography you will ever see.

Dale Holo passed

Dale Holo passed away yesterday at his home on Cummings.  Dale has been in Magnolia park for about 7 years.  He is not listed in the Magnolia Park Book per his request. Most of us only saw Dale when he went to get his mail. He was a tall, skinny fellow with ears that stuck out. He would visit if you engaged him in conversation but he did not initiate it to my knowledge.
