Can you see the nest and the hummingbird? This hummingbird is in front of my brother's house, my other brother took the picture as he was turning on the swamp cooler and noticed it.

Neat! I've never seen a hummingbird not in flight. Of course, after moving here from Fort Worth I pretty much don't see them at all.

WOW!!! Nice! I've been asking around if anyone has ever seen a hummingbird on a nest. First for me...

Each year I keep feeders out and have so many birds, I really get a show. I have searched and searched my trees with binoculars hoping to find a nest, but never have seen one. That is great to actually see one that is not in a magazine. You should send a pic to Birds and Blooms magazine. Thanks for sharing.

Great picture. Man, finding and actually getting a picture of these little guys is very hard to do. We only have a few here outside of Boyd,TX. Guess we are 'off the flight path'. But, we put feeders out for them and wife and I both love to watch them. Somewhere I have a picture of one I was VERY lucky to catch in flight at the feeder. Man, even that is hard to do. Good post, great picture!

My cousin has one in her backyard. The egg has already hatched and there's a tiny baby in the nest. They use a telescope from inside the house to film it feeding.
