The size of a hummingbird

Back in the spring of 2013 I was an avid online hummingbird watcher. A man in Southern California had a live streaming webcam focused on a hummingbird nest, and hundreds of us tuned in regularly to watch Phoebe the hummingbird and her babies.

Fledge window opens tomorrow

Attention hummingbird fans

Hungry for spring

If spring still seems months away in your part of the world (or even if it has arrived), treat yourself to this Southern California garden. Fleur and Pip, young hummingbirds preparing to leave the nest (“fledge”) in the next few days, are on a live streaming webcam. Tune in to watch them and their attentive … Continue reading Hungry for spring
