Feeding Her Babies

Tinkerbell, our resident hummingbird, has been busy feeding her babies.   We’ve yet to see them because they are rather tiny and are not tall enough to reach over the top of their nest.   Here’s a short video Norm shot yesterday of Tinkerbell feeding the babies with no doubt some nutritious regurgitated bugs.   I look forward to seeing them in the next few weeks as they grow.

    Fascinating! I kept wondering just what she was scraping off those pine(?) needles before delivering more food to the wee ones. Hope Norm gives you more videos to post!
