Twin Hummingbird Chicks

Description

I went way back to 2006 archive to find this series of hummingbird chicks. They were high in a tree so had to get a tall ladder to get above them to get this capture. I used a long zoom so as not to disturb the chicks. I followed them every other day till they left the nest about 2 week. I will post some other over next days. Sorry I have been very busy and will catch-up commenting soon. MT New Beginnings.
