Wow, that is awesome. I love humming birds. I have 5 humming bird feeders hanging on my porch. They are fascinating to watch.
Wow! How cool is that!
That was a wonderful video. Thank you for sharing that. I keep forgetting to buy a new hummingbird feeder. I have the perfect place for one and right now I have a wind chime hanging there and still the hummingbird is attracted to it. I just love hummingbirds.Quote:

A few years back a Mourning dove raised its baby in a tree right outside of our dining room window. Watching the little guy go from a helpless baby into a beautiful adult was really a neat experience.
Thanks for sharing this!
That was very cool and absoutely amazing! Thanks for sharing Mary.:)
Both sites were great. I love hummers! I'd tried for years to get hummers at my feeders, and it wasn't until I started making my own sugar solution instead of using the commercial stuff that I finally got some. Now normally most season's I get 2-3 hummers, but starting yesterday I now have 8!!:eek::D
Wow, those are truly amazing photos! I can't believe how tiny their nest are.
Fascinating! Thank you, Mary!
