Chance Meeting At The Garden Center: Photo Of The Day

SAN LEANDRO, CA — While picking up tomato plants at her local garden center, Miyo Burnett glanced over at a display of flowers and spotted a hummingbird helping itself to nectar.

She did a bit of research and found out that hummingbirds symbolize joy, good fortune, resilience, and recovery. They are believed to bring healing to the suffering and good luck to travelers.

All of you traveling for spring break should consider this a good omen!

Thank you for submitting your photo, Miyo.
