Spring again by jaybutterfield

Spring again

Our mama hummingbird has built another home again this year in our camellias and has one already 'in the nest'
Great picture!

I love this shot & how the feather on the edge of the nest looks like a Heart ..

How lovely hope for updates

You have one too! Mine had two, third year for this mama, on the front porch. I don't think most people realize how small both the nests and the eggs are. Looking forward to seeing the progress.

Didn't know hummingbirds made nests. How lucky you are to have one as a tenant. Thanks for sharing your photo

So sweet! Hummingbirds are amazing creatures and you have such a great view to watch their progress.

Such a beautiful little nest. I am always in awe of engineering feats by birds :)

@dllawson @waterfowler @dawnee @stray_shooter @hermann Thanks all -- I went out last night to check on the progress and she was sitting on the nest very quiet no movement. Usually when I walk out the front door she flies away quickly (drawing the "predator"'s attention away from the nest but maybe she's trusting me now. Will keep you posted. Last year we got two eggs.

Aw....... Sweet. For the first time in several years the hummers have not built nests in our ficus trees just outside our front door. We miss them.

@jaybutterfield That's kind of a relief! Mine have always been born and raised as pairs. Good luck!

I've just come across this and what a wonderful photo! Aren't they a delight to have around?!

@Weezilou Yes. She hid her nest this year very well and I was unable to find it.
