Mama Hummer and her babies
















A couple of weeks ago, we noticed a nest in the Palo Verde tree in our front yard. It was too tiny to be anything other than a Hummingbird's. Sure enough we have enjoyed watching mama keep close to this nest and once while she was gone, I sneaked in close enough to get a shot of the eggs. Early this week, I noted she was 'fiddling' around the edge of the nest and wondered if the babies had actually hatched. Sure enough, we sneaked in once again and got a shot of the two babies side by side. It will be fun to watch them mature.
