New Baby Hummingbird!

You will have to look closely to see this mother Anna's Hummingbird feeding her newborn. We have a scope set up in our living room in our second-floor apartment here at Dallas Retirment Village, trained on this hummingbird nest in a dogwood tree in the Central Courtyard.  We check on it many times a day, and notice when the female leaves the nest, and most of the time comes to the juice feeder in our balcony.  This morning on one of her return trips to the nest I spotted her feeding her baby!  Jeanette went to the garage and got a step ladder for me to stand on down by the nest to get this photo. We have been folowing this nest closely since finding it on Tues March 26th.
