Momma on her nest

This little Rufous hummingbird made her nest near where we park our cars. My husband just happened to spot it. She is so sweet keeping her eggs warm. :)

Little Momma in the trees

Here's another one of her next to a salal bush. The leaves are about 4 inches long. Yesterday it was pouring down rain and windy. Today is warm and sunny. No matter what, she sits on her eggs. I read it takes anywhere from 13 to 22 days for them to hatch. I don't know how long ago she laid them, but I will keep checking each day for her babies. Don't worry, I won't touch anything.
