It is April 12, 2020 and the babies are just about too big for the nest. The livestream was getting pretty boring as Mama was always gone, except to feed the chicks a few times a day. Here is a compilation video as things evolved.
Hey Neil, that was really cool! Love your playing on the video too !
You should contact National Geographic or some other national publication to discuss publishing this for the world to see. So many people love Hummingbirds and very few have ever seen a nest, let alone the babies and progression from eggs to chicks to fly away birds.
I love your hummingbird videos Neil. Beautiful music too. It was great to watch her raising her babies. I wonder if you guys ever named her or her babies. Thank you for taking the time to video that little circle of life so we could all be part of it.
