Broadtailed Hummingbird Family

Recently a hummingbird family has taken a home on a wire on my porch. I'm learning much about their species because of it. Like who would've known that baby hummingbirds wiggle there butts and shoot out feces. And they do this to keep their nest clean. Also I don't think before this occurred I realized how small this genus is, their nest is a inch max in diameter!!! SO COOL. And their eggs are so small it's interesting to compute. Either way I've been will continue posting observations of them and will check my game camera I set up near to see if the babies have started to fly yet its about time. I'm hoping they will return and I can find their next nest location the coming year.
