Hummer Mama
The two hummingbird babies have hatched. Last Monday night we had a party in the backyard and mama was nervous. She left and we thought she was gone for good but she is quite dedicated. Brook took these pictures of her feeding the babies. When they were first born they were on the floor of the nest side by side and she would sit on them for long periods of time. Now she leaves them for long periods of time and we can see their little beaks and heads poking out of the nest. Great shots, Brook.

That really is so amazing how tiny they are. So sweet. I like to think about how big their hearts are. What a neat thing to have watched! She is a good mom, has she kicked them out yet?
