Recently hatched hummingbirds

This hummingbird nest is attached to a mandevilla vine just above the sliding glass door to our patio. It was discovered when the mother bird’s fierce humming as she attacked a larger bird that had perched near the nest drew my attention. It was very special to be able to watch the nestlings being fed, grow, test their wings and finally fly–all able to be easily observed through the window without disturbing the birds!
