I got to watch the mother hummingbird come drink from the birdbath today. I didn't get any pictures of it, but it was interesting, she hovered just above the water and drank then flew back to her nest so she could keep those babies shaded.

Baby Hummingbirds Are Active Today
Wow active little babies today, the sun hit the nest and I thought they were going to crawl right out of it. Good thing for them moma hummer didn't stay away very long, and showed up to keep them shaded. The top of their beaks are starting to turn black now, the inside and underneath are still yellow.

Thank you so much for posting these photos and writing about what you see. Great observations. You must be in Northern California...? Love the Pileated WP, too!
Thanks Anonymous,
It's truly a blessing to be able to observe all this. I'm in the Pacific Northwest, glad you enjoyed the Pileated WP.
