That is so neat. I have 4 feeders hanging up and they drain them. They are the most interesting birds, and for one to build a nest right where you can keep an eye on what happens is so neat!!!

I spend the major portion of each day outdoors, and I have never found a hummingbird's nest. Thanks for the pictures. Geo.

I had nearly the same thing happen - - noticed a robin flying out of my climbing rose arbor - finally looked up and she has a nest as well - - I call her Miss Pissy cuz it is on my way to my truck and she has a fit about it everytime! Her nest is really pretty - all lichen and mossy! Very cool about your nest - we will have to post pics of the young uns when they hatch!
