Calliope Hummingbird Nest

nest--almost invisible

Big and fuzzy

Very brave!

Lonely in here

First close look at new Calliope Hummingbird Nest

July ` - Starting to spread their wings

Calliope Hummingbird chicks preparing to fledge, Flathead Lake, Montana

Two chicks! June 18

great camo

One is clearly bigger and will probably fledge first. Luckily they are light--larger one is sitting on smaller one.

Very active!

Suddenly, it seems, they are getting BIG!
