That is so sad. As I have grown older I respect all life more and more. Life is so fragile. It's amazing that anything survives in this day and age. Dog eat Dog is the design sad to say.
It's definitely best to not disturb the nest when you find one. Having said that sometimes they make their nests in the most common, easy to find places it's almost comical! I've had friends with them on their porch lights, on their window sills and even one in an empty bird bath!
Very cool! Damn thrashers.
wow great little scene, hope all goes well?
Sadly the Hummingbird nest was attacked by a Thrasher and there were no survivors. I cried like a baby under that tree.

Lucky to find a nest. They are so tiny. In Minnesota, the Ruby Throat hummingbirds like to hide in pine trees. So, very hard locating their nest
