The Second Generation Has Arrived


So we have now named our Hummingbird Mom. We decided she must be the same mom that used this nest last year, so we are calling her Big Jess, since her '06 baby is named Jessiphina. If one or both babies make it this year, then we'll give them appropriate 'J' names also.

The eggs hatched on May 9th, and we have two tiny little hatchlings. Last year one baby was obviously bigger than the other, and the smaller one got booted out of the nest pretty quick. This year they both look pretty healthy, so hoping they both make it.
