Pet Channel

One of the first things I have learned about life is that there are many people have very nice front porches or covered stoops and I have sat on a good number of them over the years. But recently I have also noticed that there are fewer and fewer homes with front porches. Regardless of whether you have a front porch or stoop I have started noticing something a little strange, at least it was to me at first. There are these peculiar glass containers hanging out there that are often filled with a pink liquid. My first thought was that this must be some tradition but I couldn't figure out exactly what kind. My first thought was why would anyone want to hang up pink cool aid on their front porch? I mean, I had never really seen anything like this. We didn't do this where I grew up. But soon I found out what they were and why people have them. They're humming bird feeders.
