My father left us soon after, and my mother found work as an upstairs maid for a prominent Galveston family. As it seemed she would be quite busy with her duties, it was arranged for me and my younger brother, Jamie, to stay at the Lasker Home for Homeless Children. My older half-brother, George, went to live with his father’s grandparents. I never saw him again and have always wondered what became of him.]]></description>

Certified Master Gardener

Soon the hummingbirds will return to Galveston, thrilling us with their antics as they hover in mid-air with rapidly flapping wings and captivating us with their fragility and elegance. Native to the Americas from Alaska to Chile, most hummingbirds of the U.S. and Canada migrate south in fall to spend the winter in Mexico or Central America passing through our area on the way. Called Hummingbird in English because of the humming sounds that their wings make, they are known by other names as well; in Spanish as Joyas Volardores or flying jewels and in Portuguese as Beijaflor or flower-kisser.
