The top topic concerning birds at Dallas Retirement Village among The Lodge Residents is the nesting Anna's Hummingbirds in the Central Courtyard. We have already had two failed nests but currently have four separate trees containing occupied nests. This nest was photographed on March 21st. Notice the light-colored lichens that sort of "shingle" the outside of the nest. Although hard to see, the whole nest is bound together with spider webbing. Take a tour through the Courtyard and perhaps take a seat on a bench and watch closely for the hummingbirds.
