A NEW NEST! During lunch at the Red House Bistro with our downstairs neighbors, Roger and Sandy Coburn, they mentioned to us that they had hummingbirds coming and going into their dryer vent. They wondered if they were nesting in the the dryer vent. After lunch, Jeanette and I went to investigate. We concluded that the hummingbirds were probably not nesting in the vent but instead gathering lint to construct a nest in a more suitable location. We turned our attention to the dogwood trees in the courtyard and almost by accident found the nest with the female in it. I have now set up a scope in my den where I can observe it, and today as I write this, Friday February 28th, the female is busy working on the nest.
8th or 28th? .... Someday I'll find an active hummingbird nest .... someday.
