This is the tiny Hummingbird nest we found very close to the deck after the leaves fell in the fall. http://365project.org/sunnygreenwood/365/2011-11-03 . I'm really hoping it's re-occupied when the hummers return for the summer.
@allred my husband's idea for a title was along the lines of another snowbird gone south - great minds think alike. maybe i should change the title lol
I just love this picture! I have always wondered where the humingbirds nest. We have from two to six every summer but I've not found a nest. Your birds like you better!
@mwarren365 thanks Mike! it looks like b&w but it's just our life these days in the dead of winter with snow and dark days. the sun is just trying to peak through now so maybe we'll get a little colour ... ;-)
This is simply beautiful. I hope they do move back in come spring time. Nice that the nest is close to the house and somewhere you can get good shots. You'll have to set up a tripod and hope for some closeups.
Like a beautiful little textured cup holding snow! The whole composition is so delicate and lovely. What would you say that nest measured (approximately?)
Wonderful pic, Anne! Because of your other pic, I have looked in my trees for a nest. I haven't had any luck. I really need to look at my Mom's. They have more hummingbird feeders than I do. :0)
