Good luck finding a nest… What types of hummingbird do you have?

I have plenty of hummers around here but have yet to find a nest. Hopefully someday I will. Thanks for sharing that.

OK, so we only get Ruby Throated’s here. Maybe it’s a matter of practice.

He has feeders for all sorts of birds. Interesting about the Hummingbird hawk moth. And I’ve never seen a hummingbird nest, thanks for the photo.

Hummingbirds in your garden. How exotic! Sometimes we get reports that people have seen hummingirds in England, but these examples are when people have been fooled by seeing hummingbird hawk-moths which are now being spotted in the south. In itself this is quite remarkable as I believe until recently they were only seen in warmer countries in Europe. I had a large budlea at my previous house where I lived for ten years. I often heard how popular budleas were with butterflies but we didn’t find this until last summer when we saw loads more butterflies. I hope this is an indication that the butterfly population is increasing, and not just an anomoly.

Amazing and wonderful!

And here, I was thinking that you were fully ready for a gas-guzzler!

Wonderful photo and great pics at the site, too, from what I can see in the homepage. Thanks for the link.
