Guys! You gotta watch this one! I don't know which is more beautiful - the birds or the nest they built.
Oh, and one more comment...in hummingbirds the females do ALL of the work, from nest building to brooding to feeding; the males only provide one thing and their job is done! So your phrase "the nest
they built" was overly generous to Mr. Anna's Hummingbird. I'm amazing that a bird with such a high metabolism, who has to eat almost constantly, can feed herself and two young ones all alone!
I am PC run riot, Patti! Thanks for the info. I would love to be "Anna" and have this wonderful bird named after me. She is simply gorgeous. I was guessing I had seen both parents, but it was probably the angle. Her throat feathers are splendid - and that nest! Any info on that? The colouring is as beautiful as she is. Do you know what she uses? And what sort of plant is the nest in? I suppose I could google but it is more fun to chat to people who know!
