This is truly amazing. Be sure to click on NEXT PAGE at the bottom of each page of pictures; there are 5 pages in all. A lady found a hummingbird nest and got pictures all the way from the egg to leaving the nest. It took 21 days from birth to flight

Thank you mich168 for posting that link!!
That was wonderful!!!
The nest was so soft!!! I was wondering how she could find all that soft cotteny lining, but when I saw the size comparison, it would only be about as much as one cotton-ball out of a package!!!
