🧾 Frequently Asked Questions
❓What species of hummingbird is this?
This is an Allen's Hummingbird which normally breeds on the West coast of the United States and Mexico, although the bird has been spotted in other areas of the southern United States.
❓Does this mother hummingbird have a name?
The contest to name our mother hummingbird is over! And the winner is... EMERALD (40% of 970 votes). We wish the best for Emerald and her babies!
❓When was the first and the second hatch?
The first egg hatched at 1:29pm on February 7.
The second egg hatched at 10:40am on February on February 8.
❓What day was the first hummingbird egg laid?
The first egg was laid on January 19 and the second on January 21.
❓How long will it take the baby hummingbirds to leave the nest?
The juvenile hummingbirds will fledge between 18 to 28 days after they hatched.
❓What is the nest made from?
The nest is made from grasses and small twigs filled in with soft and fluffy fibre that the mother hummingbird finds on fuzzy plants like seed pods, dandelion down, cottonwood and the like. The nest is held together with spider silk and is soft and spongy to accommodate the rapidly increasing size of the baby birds. To camouflage the nest she put paint chips on the outside to try to blend in with the house.
❓How can I help with the nest building?
You can supply soft material for the mother hummingbird to use in her nest. You can buy nesting material for your hummingbird here: amzn.to/3qMImAM​​
❓Will the nest be used again?
This same location has been used for a few years. Hummingbirds often have two or three clutches per year, so when these babies fly away we might not be finished for the season!

Erin, my son died age 31 in 2018. The night before he passed he told me don’t forget mom to buy hummingbird feeders! He was going back to his apartment in Philadelphia my husband was taking him. I still have his sweaty kiss on my cheek as he had just been planting till late at night he loves the outdoors he loved nature and he was very in tune with hummingbirds which I didn’t really know that he had been. But he always saw me feeding our little birds in a nest and since a young age I brought him into nature, The pain of his life is so great I will never be the same. But I have hummingbird feeders and that would be hold in April after he had passed about a week after the hummingbirds came I stayed outside here in Southeastern Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia and by the time the summers and I had the hummingbirds eating out of my hand in a bowl. I have so many videos and I have so many little things that remind me of him that are hummingbird related. I’m sorry for your loss. We only get one mother in life and it’s so hard when they are gone and we love them so much. My mother died in 2014 she was the one that led us onto the nature journey and I took it from there and my son took it even further loving plants and nature. It’s been so hard for me being on medication’s a few grief groups, therapy …everything but nothing brings your child back. God bless you. And God bless your mother. I hope that I see hummingbirds in heaven with my son one day and I hope your mother has them flying around her in heaven!

My Dad loved hummingbirds. He passed in 2000. When my husband & I started build our log cabin ourselves, a single hummingbirds would come everyday, fly around the house as if it was checking our progress, then come to each of us in turn & fly away. This went on as long as we were working on the house. I always said, it was Dad coming by to see us. He also loved woodwork. Due to circumstances, we had to stop building for a few years. Our little hummingbird friend quit coming by. Then when we started working on the house again, the 3rd day we had a visitor. I'd like to think , it was Dad coming back, as if to say, it's about time yall finished the house. Unfortunately, I lost my husband to cancer last year and no we never got the house finished. 😞

Living on a 370 (+/-) acres forested "farm" with perhaps 50 acres ate in green grass pastures I often sit under the carport and watch a humming bird who flies about within easy sight. It often disappears into deep throated blooms and dances around for a few seconds before moving on to another flower. Took my phone camera and was able to capture her both in the flower and flying by close to its petles. At 84 at his has been such an awesome experience. God truly blesses.

Loving this Hummingbirds, a week ago during daytime one flew into my window. I took him in my hands, walked him around 10min in the garden, gave him some drops water and after he was fit again to fly to the next palm. They come here into my garden every day, loving birds and having always water for them for drinking and taking a bath. You can set a watch at which time which birds are coming. They never use the same waterspot together, always waiting polite until the other species is gone before they take a bath...humans can learn a lot from birds 😘😎♥

[@cookinitmax]

I had a Hummingbird visit me really a few on the bird feeder, but I remember this one the best. I'm in the garden one day watering the plants I had the door open to the house and one of the hummingbirds flew inside and then tried to fly out of the window on top of the roof it would sit there trying to get out and get tiered and slowly fall I'd catch it in my hand and sit with it allowing it to gain its strength back and drink from the feeder. I then let it go and continue watering my plants i walked inside the house and there it was in the same spot, so I waited again it fell into my hands. I sat back down let it feed again and gain its strength back once more it flapped its wings letting a little feather go i still have the feather 10 years latter it then took to the sky. I then continued to water my plants trying to finish up for the day all of the sudden this hummingbird flies around my head i could hear its powerful little wings flapping in the air and then it stops directly in front of my face just sitting there flapping its wings as to thank me for helping it out I turned on the mist of the water and gave it a lite mist of the water and it took off into the air and came back down and then left what a wonderful thing to happen. How tiny these things are VERY CUTE.

Once, in San Jose, California, I watched a hummingbird build her nest on a tree branch right outside of our second floor window. She had two babies and dutifully fed them regularly. One day there was a terrible rain storm, and I just knew she wasn't coming back. I called the Audubon Society for help. They simply said it wasn't the season for hummingbirds to breed. I argued that the babies were in the nest outside my window. I tried vets and anyone I could think of - no help. The weaker baby died. I carefully lifted it out of the best so as not to leave my scent and waited. Nothing. There was no way to help.I buried both of them in my front yard. I learned a lot from watching the process and will never forget the experience.

I guess the babies are grown by now, but I just found this video and it was just what I needed after a stressful day ❤️🙏

Oh my goodness that was so beautiful to watch. I love my hummingbirds ❤

Years ago, in Tucson, AZ, we watched a Costas hummingbird build her nest and hatch one egg in the eucalyptus sapling in our front yard. The mama bird used Easter grass along with twigs and fluff to build her nest. It was quite decorative. During storms, with the wind whipping and whirling the young tree so strongly, we couldn’t believe the nest and mama bird stayed intact, but she had anchored it firmly with excretions she applied to the twigs. When the chick hatched, it quickly grew to be nearly as large as the mama. It took up the entire nest. It’s call sounded just like the chime on my husband’s sport watch. If another bird got near, Mama bird would attack it in a fury of flapping wings and dive bombs. No bird was too large for her! One day, the nest was empty. We discovered the pair in our back yard on our stone fence. The fledgling was still chiming, and Mama was still feeding her huge offspring.

I had 2 crash land on my porch. I was surprised they let me pickvthem up. I checked them out and they sat in my hand for almost an hour before flying into my dogwood. It was so neat to be that close. It was about a month apart of their accidents.

This is so beautiful! This is beautiful that this showed up in my KZbin recommended today because earlier today, I was outside swinging, and all of the sudden, a beautiful hummingbird flew right over my head! Almost like he was saying hi to me. It made my day! We haven’t seen much hummingbirds. I love them. So it was very special to see one. I love this channel, thank you for sharing these beautiful birdies. They’re so colorful and full of life, like my heart when watching this. Lots of Love!

I love Hummingbirds so much! Last Summer I hung a feeder on my porch and tons of Hummingbirds came and drank the nectar! I’m waiting for their return! 🤗
