A community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general!
Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.
Image of hummingbird sitting on nest in bush.
Hummingbirds like to nest on my patio every year.
The eggs were about the size of your pinky's fingernail. Sooo small.
That's too precious. Those hatchlings! Do they reuse the same nest?
I don't think so. I looked online and it says California hummingbirds don't, but they'll take from old nests.
Here is the same mama, I believe, in a fun location. These are a string of small Christmas lights my neighbor has on her patio about 12 ft from the nest in the original photo.
