That picture of the hummingbird nest must be very rare. How awesome to see a baby hummingbird. Thank you for posting.

There was a "hummingbird cam" on the internet - probably still there and many of us would check in to see the Mom bird fly off and back as she incubated. Then the eggs hatched and I think the babies are still in the nest. Was so fun - even if I was on another site, if that cam was open on another tab I could hear what sounded like a faint motorbike as the Mom flew off and on the nest!

I know I have nests but they are way up in the Leyland Cypress and well hidden, so I really appreciate this photo!

Thanks!!

Hummingbirds are fascinating to watch. I just put out two feeders, hoping that some will come to my yard.

I've been watching a cam, too. Is it this one?
