Anna’s Hummingbird mom is feeding her nestlings; they’re about 5-6 days old, still naked and blind. She sits on the nest to keep them warm, they can’t regulate their body temperature. The nurturing instincts of hummingbirds are truly captivating.

Nesting season is here!
Peeking through the evergreen branches in the breeze, it's a treat to see these adorable, 9-10 days old Anna's Hummingbird chicks in their tiny nest, in their natural habitat with their protective, caring mother perched at the edge of the nest and even more special to capture their feeding.
The nestlings are growing strong day by day. Their eyes are already opened and can regulate their body temperature, so mom spends more time away from the nest, looking for insects for her babies as a great protein source. She usually returns and feed them in every 45 minutes.

While on my walk in a park, I noticed a Bushtit pair-adorable, tiny fluff balls, no bigger than my thumb- busy building their nest, weaving moss and silk into a soft, dangling pouch, a sock-like structure, hanging from a thin branch.
