Birth of Hummingbirds
This YouTube website provides a stunning video, set to the music of Mozart, of the birth of two hummingbirds. You can watch the mother building the nest, see the eggs hatch, and get a unique view of how the mother bird feeds her young and prepares them for independence. The video is approximately 8 minutes in length.
ClickScholar Carol Comanse inspired me to feature today’s video, when she shared a link for still photographs of the birth of hummingbirds captured by a photographer.
Be sure to click on the “next” button at the bottom of each page to see all of the photos. As Carol noted, “Keep in mind the egg is smaller than a Tic-Tac candy and a U.S. quarter (25 cents) fits the opening of the nest!”
