Birds OK: Mystery nest is that of hummingbird About: Birds of Kentucky: Mother Nature goes stealth photo by Cindy Meyer Click on headline for article, links + photo(s) By Cameron Campbell Comment on hummingbird nests I immediately recognized this as a hummingbird's nest. My grandmother found a nest almost exactly like this a few years ago with newly-hatched hummingbirds. I'm pretty sure the birds use spider-webs as a main part of the nest (it gives it the soft cotton feel). Also, I believe the lichen on the outside is intentional. I'm not sure if it has a purpose of insulation or if it is just camouflage. But I can guarantee this is a hummingbird nest. -Cameron Campbell Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2010-04-24 07:04:22 | Comments | Printable version
