Almost Time To Fledge!

This morning when I checked on the baby hummingbirds one was still sitting on the top of the nest, and the other one still staying cozy inside the nest. The nest has stretched out quite a bit.

The baby hummingbird inside the nest was getting it's wings into shape, and practicing flapping them.

By this afternoon both hummingbirds were sitting on the top of the nest, guess the one inside the nest was getting lonely.

I imagine one of them will fledge tomorrow morning, and if it does then it will be right on schedule from what I've read. Might be fun trying to get pictures of them at the feeders and flowers, Momma Hummer is already defending the new feeder.

That may be the most adorable thing I've ever seen. I do hope you get some shots of them flying about. Thanks again for letting us in on the fun!
