alan555 @alan555.bsky.social · 17/07/2025How many hummingbirds does it take to change a light bulbs? 070
vingoe.bsky.social @vingoe.bsky.social · 17/07/2025The humming bird that made that nest on top of the lightbulb was the Martha Stewart of Humming Birds. :) The bird looked at an impossible spot and said "I can make that work" :) 030
Arizona Birder @liberalazbirder.bsky.social · 17/07/2025What a great pic! I've had Anna's and Broad-billed hummingbirds nest in my Tucson trees. I have a video of one of the Broad-billed hummingbirds fledging. I was obsessed! 🪶🥰 060
tichodroma @feathertrail.net · 17/07/2025I wanted a birding adventure game & there weren't any. Nearly 4 years into building this now. FT job, a toddler & a baby make it a marathon. But day by day we're getting closer... Feather Trail is on Steam & you can wishlist it: store.steampowered.com/app/2857180/... #GodotEngine #gamedev 510520
emmawilde444.bsky.social @emmawilde444.bsky.social · 17/07/2025I have feral duck nesting on top of my chicken run. She's right over the door and looks at me crazy when I'm going in. 030
Cowboy Sonny @heyyysonny.bsky.social · 17/07/2025I had some nest in my Christmas lights in the same way. Super cool to see the little babies 🥺 070
hollypond.bsky.social @hollypond.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Fascinating nesting ability...finding a place where electricity is free is genius! 050
ScottieTakesOn @scottietakeson.bsky.social · 18/07/2025Amazing. Rarely see their nests here. Interesting couple back this year- much prefers flowers over our feeders, unlike his predecessors. Heard it's Mom scolding it last yr before migrating south. So mythical. 000

burnt-caramel.bsky.social @burnt-caramel.bsky.social · 17/07/2025That's called underfloor heating in avian circles.. 030
Sidremus @sidremus.bsky.social · 17/07/2025used to be a clever way to save on nest heating costs, but LEDs kinda ruined it.. 000
Big Cheese @mrbobbles.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Fantastic photo, and nice story too! Tha is for sharing 000
Zelena Sage @zelenasage.blacksky.app · 17/07/2025Coincidentally they are nesting right outside my house and they need a lot of syrup from me, so I guess I'm a co-parent. 000
RandolphGibbs @randolphgibbs.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Hummingbirds are my birds of summer and Chickadees are my birds of winter !! 010

Resist, Don't Retreat! @wgachesa.bsky.social · 17/07/2025This is an excellent capture. Thank you for sharing. Birds deserve so much more appreciation. 010
butterisbetter1.bsky.social @butterisbetter1.bsky.social · 17/07/2025I love how my fledged Bewick's Wren babies, taught by parents where my suet pellet crumbs awaited, now come on their own, but still do the baby Bewick begging flutters before feeding themselves. 000
Chance @2ndchance.bsky.social · 17/07/2025My bird complaining about his conditions until he realizes other “free”birds have to use ingenuity and fight for survival every day of their lives. 1100

joellien.bsky.social @joellien.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Seeing an actual hummingbird nest out in the wild is bucket list for me. I would cry. 0110
Candice LaPrade @twinnerb.bsky.social · 17/07/2025I had a quail wind chime a long time ago. A hummingbird built its nest on the back of the quail. I removed the nest after the baby birds flew off. A year or so later another hummingbird built a new nest in the same place! 000

roqgarcia.bsky.social @roqgarcia.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Can confirm....Saw the same on a lady's porch on top of one of those decorative light strings. Must be the perfect temp for hummingbird nesting. 030
JHegarty @hegjj.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Mama thought the light bulb nest was a great idea...and it was. 040
