Description


Found this momma hummingbird outside my office window in a bush. I told our gardener to leave that bush alone and to make sure his workers did also. She had two tiny eggs in it, then soon two tiny birds, which eventually took flight. Momma watched over them day and night. It was amazing to watch her feed them and guard them. Taken with Olympus Digital D-360-L. I was that close to her too. Did not have to use the zoom. She got used to me coming around. :)

I was not able to get the babies. I wish I had too. But they were really really cute.
