Had lunch at Park Bench Cafe in Huntington Beach Central Park.  Fully stuffed and Nu-Hope belt in place, took a stroll around the lake.

We discovered a tiny Hummingbird nest at the tip of a tree branch.  Inside were 2 tiny, hungry chick's.  We could see their heads and beaks poking out of the nest... waiting for mom to return with a snack.

Then Mom returned.  Unfortunately I could only get pictures in portrait mode.  So following pictures are side ways.

You can see the little beaks at the bottom.

 

This one is correct orientation.

Hummingbirds?! Good grief, you can barely see them whizzing by but to actually be lucky enough to spot an active nest...now that is something! How cool, awesome you caught such a rarity!!

They must have known mom was near.  They got really excited, bouncing up and down.  Then mom zipped up and fed them.  Not something you see everyday.

Unfortunately this picture is sideways.  I'll add one to my profile where I can rotate it.
