Two little families of Hummingbirds have built nests in one of our really old sheds.
I keep waiting for the little birds to hatch, but then they do and I miss them. Darn it.
Anyway, I’ll keep watching. The next set of eggs I hope to see hatch and if I do so will you!

Now that is pretty neat!! I have never seen one before, hopefully you get to see them hatch next time!!

Is one that white splotch on the fence wire (Is that a fence wire, very close up?). I can’t imagine how small a hummingbird baby must be! Amazing!

I think it would be neat to see the hummingbird eggs hatch, so I hope you are there to record the big event. You got another beautiful rainbow. I’ll let you keep the rainbows, but how about sending a little rain our way?

Unbelievably cool! I know they nest around here, but in a lifetime of bird watching I have only ever found one nest.

WOW! Neat! I hope you get to see the little buggers sometime. They must be TINY! I’m not sure what kind you have there? Here in ND we only see the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds. I have a lovely pair here at my farm that I enjoy watching the antics of as they visit my feeders and perennial flower gardens. They likely nest in my evergreens, so I’ve never been lucky enough to find a nest.

I can’t even begin to imagine how small the nest and the babies would be. Wow! It certainly would be neat to see their first flight!
I know there are a few web cam’s that have watched nesting hummers – they are fascinating. But, to have one in your shed is far cooler!

Interesting. Here they have nests in bushes. We have about 20 barn swallows this year. I love watching them and they sure eat the bugs.

That has got to be some sort of sign of luck or sign of prosperity. So the corn will come in heavy as will the cattle.
