Birth of a Humming Bird
Keep in mind the egg is smaller than a tic tac and a quarter fits the opening of the nest! See last photo
THE BIRTH OF A HUMMINGBIRD This is truly amazing. Be sure to click on NEXT PAGE at the bottom of each page; there are 5 pages in all. A lady found a hummingbird nest and got pictures all the way from the egg to leaving the nest. It took 24 days from birth to flight. Because you'll probably never in your lifetime see this again, enjoy; and please share. Click on the link below: http://community-2.webtv.net/Velpics/HUM/ Hummer Nest '05

I had to watch it twice. And smiled the whole time.
What an amazing nest. I wonder where this was that momma got that soft cottony looking material for the inside of the nest. And Toothpick size.... Amazing!!! Thanks, babe

I was also wondering how she got the white in her nest as well. I had no idea the nest and eggs were so small. DUH I should have known that just by knowing how small these birds are in the first place.

Thanks so much for posting this, JP. We have hummingbird nests in our lychee tree on our backyard patio, but we've never been able to get a peek inside. Wonderful pictures.
