Best of Nests

To view more of my photography please click on www.rakmilphotography.com

This hummingbird nest was the size of small teacup and it was very high up. The female bird never left the nest for long. A week or so later we saw two small beaks poking out. On our next visit a few days later the nest was empty.

Pileated Woodpecker

You find these by their hammering sound. Beating away to find food or boring out a tree trunk for a nest.
