Nice. I think it needs a little more space on the right side though. It would also be nice to get one of the parents in the frame. I would probably make more visits to try to get more of the family in the picture. Also be careful not to disturb the birds! But you probably already knew that. I have a question that perhaps you could answer. If hummingbirds feed on plant nectar how do they feed the babies? Do they regurgitate into the mouths of the babies or what?

What a cutie! I'd love to just see a nest with nestlings like this.
Not sure, but I know hummingbirds will feed on insects at times. Thought that it was small insects they normally fed to their young (but that's just what I remember).
