A Hummer for Hummers

Karlene says:

"We hung a ceramic hummingbird in our backyard. To my great surprise...a hummingbird built a nest on it. Two babies were hatched.  I loved watching them grow.  We have had other nests over the years but this one is unique where it was built."

Absolutely Precious! Thank you Karlene.

The Santa Ana River still flows through Yorba Linda. The shallow waters are a perfect place to go local bird watching.  See article by Bruce Chambers/Orange County register
