I discovered a hummingbird nest in the branches of my butterfly bush last month. This hummer normally mates and nests in the mountains of Mexico.
What a great surprise it was to have this happen right in my front yard.
If you'd like to see photos of the nest:

Great Pics, I had to share with my co-workers. They wondered what kind of camera you used to take the shots???

tehag - de nada... y gracias
SoCalAl - Camera is a Canon D20; photographer is mi esposo. My role was that of 'mother hen', each day at my window watching over that nest. Oh
yeah, I also cropped the photos.
