Bird Ramblings - Hummingbirds

We had a lot of excitement this past week at Dallas Retirement Village when Executive Assistant Susan Fink discovered this female Anna's Hummingbird building a nest in a dogwood tree in The Lodge Central Courtyard. Susan went and got Administrative Receptionist Mary Ransier, who took this photo. This is our first Hummingbird nest of the season. Time will tell if she finishes the nest. I always worry that too much human curiosity will cause her to abandon the nest building site. We will be monitoring all the trees in the Courtyard for any possibilities. - Jim Scott
