Hummingbirds

Hummingbirds mother feeding one of her chicks. Small hummingbird nest in the crotch of a birch tree. When the mother is caring for young chicks she will increase her diet to include more spiders and insect.

Hummingbirds are much easier to see and photograph when you have a house to use as a base. I finally got around to putting up a hummingbird feeder this year, but the hummingbirds had been abound my house nesting in the woods at the edge of clearings. The Hummingbird feeder just brings them more frequently to a specific spot outside my window.
