Protecting my nest
Uploaded: October 09, 2018 | Entered: October 09, 2018 14:04:03
This tiny humming bird built her nest about 20 feet up a tree in a neighbors yard. I had to stand on a tall ladder to get this capture. Here she was sitting on her two eggs which hatched a couple days later. I went back to capture them as well.
