Great Job Puglover. A very unique find. I wonder what Mom & Dad feeds them? I see a drop on the beak, must be some form of liquid.

Thank you Sirius!!!! I know how lucky I was. Someone had showed me where the nest was. While I was watching it I noticed a humming bird kept flying around. I was amazed when she went to the nest and started feeding her babies.

Thank you James!!! I'm not sure what she was feeding them. Mom would feed them for a minute, leave and come back and feed them again about every 20 minutes. I know I was very lucky to see this.

I've never seen a Hummingbirds nest before with babies. I went to one of our local lakes this morning and found this nest with mom and babies. Lighting was bad and lots of branches in the way but still was fun to see.


Good series. :thumbup: :thumbup:
