Hummingbird Entertainment

Inside the window behind this abutilon plant is my treadmill. I spend a tortuous half hour on it a number of times a week and the one thing that is pleasant about the whole experience (other than when it is over) is that the hummingbirds love visiting the abutilon and are constantly flitting around it while I work out.

O Sheila, it is lovely. It looks almost peach in the picture. Maybe that is what is wrong with me.... my exercise stuff is in the basement and I need something pretty to look at! ~Brooke

What a brilliant idea! I love that abutilon. Though I think if I had something as beautiful as that to look at I might stand there in a dream.

Work out motivation if I have ever seen it! That is a great idea. The treadmill is a total bore but scenery would change that for me too!

That just might entice me to walk to, at least until winter!
