I love hummingbirds. She is so lucky to have so many, we don't have any where I live
|
while vacationing in WVA a few years ago, we stopped at my GREAT Aunt's old homestead. I have never seen some many humming birds in one place! Well over 100 swarming a mimosa tree! I will never forget it!!

My husband saw one Tuesday - too cold again now :-(

We had one lay eggs in a bush in the yard there were three eggs and when they hatched they were the size of a bee. They all lived to fly away.

I don't get that many, but do love watching and photographing them. My family thinks I'm hummingbird nuts. They are amazing creatures.
