A Hummingbird’s Work Of Art   11 comments

Hummingbird On Nest Near Sabino Canyon Creek — Images by kenne (Click on any of the images to see larger view.)

This passed week Sabino Canyon Volunteer Naturalists (SCVN) have found several hummingbird nests in the canyon riparian area. This one is a true architectural work of art.

Nearby this nest is an active Cooper’s Hawk’s nest, which provides an interesting and educational bird-nest contrast for the students in our elementary nature program.

  6. What tiny nests for these amazing little birds. Have a feeling they go unnoticed by many.
