Default Hummingbird nest pictures

Growing up in Southern Arizona meant having a lot of hummingbirds at our feeders all summer long and watching them was a favorite past-time. Click on the link to see a series of pictures that follow the progress of one mama hummingbird and her little brood. They are precious. And those nests really are that tiny, my dad has a collection of them that he's found over the years in the woods around the house.

That was so cool!!
I used to feed hummingbirds on my deck when I lived in Texas...at dusk, they used to come and gather around the feeder. They are so amazing to watch!
Thanks, Esther, for sharing those photos with us.
