That it's a "peachy" idea.

Nature has its way, and that hummer must have liked what she saw! That tiny little egg was probably smaller than my little fingernail! Aren't they just amazing!~

Hi, @ECBG !  I've come to believe that hummingbirds are signs of God on earth.  How those little bodies hover and feed themselves is a miracle I can't even imagine!

@ECBG , it must be a tiny egg?  My friend has had two sets of junko eggs in her hanging baskets.

 

I am in Nova Scotia.  The hummers leave mid September.  I found them late arriving this year.

 

Keep us posted!  LM

Maybe it was attracted to the color.

This year for the very first year ever, I seemed to have a nest in the tree right by the feeder outside the kitchen window.  I can't think of any other reason why there was so much activity and young.

 

Even borrowed a high power scope, and nothing.  They are so hidden.  And I am not going to climb a tree after they leave.  

It was a joy for this year.  Would love to see it up close.
