hummingbirds in chandler az: Hummingbabies Update
- 05/04/12 11:55 AM
The hummingbabies are starting to be fun to watch. Big difference from yesterday to today. They are now putting their little beaks up in the air waiting for mom to feed them. My courtyard looked like something out of a Disney cartoon this morning. When I opened my door I there was a bunny rabbit, a roadrunner, a mama quail and 3 babies, 2 doves on the patio table and 3 wrens in the fountain...oh yes...and a big Monarch butterfly drinking from the purple flowers....and of course the hummingbird in the palm tree. All I was missing was Bambi. Day

hummingbirds in chandler az: Hummingbaby Adventure ~ Day 3

If you've been keeping up with the hummingbabies at my house in Chandler, AZ, you'll be happy to know the babies are doing great! Here are the photos I took today. I laid a 1.75" paper clip on the branch to give you an idea how small the nest and the babies are! It's fun to see TweedleDee (hatched on the 28th) is starting to get feathers and is wiggling around a little more when mom leaves the nest. TweedleDum hatched yesterday and is still pretty naked not moving around much. I love their bright yellow beaks and puffy little balloon
