Baby Hummingbirds

[ttaylor508]

Oh, how curious! They really do look like blue jays with their long beaks, and plenty of blue on them. Female bluebirds are very dull gray/blue, but I've seen a lot of bluebird nestlings, and these really don't have the right proportions, nor is the nest location right as bluebirds only nest in cavities (holes in trees or nestboxes).

If you ever happen to get a photo of Mama, I'd love to see it!

hmmm, now you have me curious too. I just thought they were cute baby birds, I never really thought what kind they might be. Here is a website I found with bird sightings in the area http://gbbc.birdsource.org/gbbcApps/...S-WA&year=2008. I hope they aren't woodpecker's (not a good home for them since it is a log cabin)!!!! It will be a couple of weeks before we get up there again, but if they are still there, I will try and get a picture of momma.

Any chance they are house wrens? They are cute regardless.
