Close to earth but not too near the soil and hopefully, out of range of predators, a tiny hummingbird built its two-inch (5cm) wide nest of feathers, spider webs, and various other delicate materials piece by piece weaving together a temporary home where two eggs less than a half-inch will be incubated, hatched, and two youngsters fed until feathers appear and the two are ready to leave the nest. Perched upon her nest in a blossoming orange tree this mama hummer sits upon her two-day-old hatchlings looking at me nervously but bravely, not willing to budge as I move in with my camera.
