Utah Bob #35998 Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Yesterday there came up a thunderstorm. It was a real toad strangler for awhile. We had a nice rainbow when it was over. Rainbow Imagine my surprise when I discovered the end of it was at my reloading shed/man cave. I checked but found no gold nor leprechaun. Not even a new gun. The end I'm not sure if this is a flock or a swarm. Flock? Swarm? Gaggle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complicated Lady Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Hey, I learned something today. A "charm" huh? I love hummingbirds but they sure can be mean to each other. I've even seen them divebom a squirrel when he got on their feeder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
