Thanks, dita. How are ‘our’ babies today? I have never seen a baby hummingbird - they must be not much bigger than a mosquito!

HI, Billie.... I noticed we have a "baby" theme today. Well, the baby hummingbirds are growing by leaps and bounds, the bigger one even flapped his tiny wings yesterday morning: what a sight. They are basking in the morning sun; Momma brought some breakfast. They are so big, she doesn't sit in the nest with them anymore and soon one will crowd out the other. This is really the fun stage.

Here's photo from the 'net similar to what I see:

Pinging all the "aunties." I have snapped some pics, but it's a regular camera so need to finish film and develop.
