Anna's Hummingbird Chicks Eyes Open

I rigged my little camera up in the tree behind the rhododendron where the nest is located.
With the camera on remote control, I spent about 90 minutes observing this wonderful Mom and her babies.
I observed her fearlessly defend her chicks from a hapless grey squirrel who came by to investigate my camera.
When I thought one of the chicks was wriggling dangerously over the edge of the nest, I was treated to the answer for my question regarding nest hygiene!
Best of all is an outstanding overhead view of Mom feeding her thriving chicks who now have their eyes open to see the world... my heart is full!
