This little “Mom” decided to build her home
for her babies in my sister’s backyard.
I wasn’t able to see them, but it was very exciting
for my sister and her family! ♥

    1. She was so excited; she sent out an email to all of the family! 🙂 It is pretty neat and Chris, my Mom loved hummingbirds and I know she would have loved seeing this, too…Thanks for your kind words! ♥ xo

      1. My family’s always been within an hour away. Then 15 years ago, we moved closer to my hubby’s family. I was willing and I love the area better, but it’s always been hard with the distance. I wish I could have lunch or go shopping with my sisters often and of course, see my Dad more often, too…oh, well, I talk to them all the time, so it’s okay…sorry for the long winded reply! 🙂

    VERY NICE, WE USUALLY GET A NEST IN THE BLINDS ON THE BACK PATIO BUT DON’T SEE ONE YET THIS SPRING.

  2. Loved the pics of the birds – eggs – nest. Everything !! We have a couple of robins casing our back patio for real estate. It’s a regular occurrence so we welcome them back every spring. V

  3. Oh, how wonderful for your sister, Lauren! And thank you for sharing. I so enjoyed the pics and your haiku … have never seen a picture of baby hummingbirds in the nest before. XO ♥

    1. I’m glad you enjoyed this, Diane! We’ve never experienced this, either, and I would think that especially hummingbirds would be some of the most difficult to get this close to. My sister and her family go in and out of the house each day (in the backyard) and walk right by the nest and “Mama” just stays there, protecting her little ones…Thanks for your comment! ♥
