@Tago-Mago Also had a great time in Berlin back in 2018.

Meet Evil Josie. We watched her build this nest over the course of a few days, and she's VERY territorial. Imagine going outside to do laundry (I know this might sound weird to a lot of people in and of itself, but that's where our laundry is) and getting buzzing fly-bys from a mama hummingbird trying to protect here turf. She makes it very clear that this is her area.

We're having a baby! She made her nest right next to a growing lime.

@seawolf That's amazing you are able to see her nest so clearly. I have been trying to see where the hummingbirds in my yard have their nests, but I have no clue! There are frickin' trees everywhere.

[seawolf]

@Oaktavia They're really hard to spot! This one was relatively easy and we really got lucky. Also, it helps that I'm in the city and trees aren't found in great numbers.

@Go-For-Chill that is one worth framing

@Oaktavia Really a great shot.

[Oaktavia]

@ROman I guess he felt safe enough in the tree. Wasn't that high up this time so I snagged the photo. This was after my not so stern scolding I gave him.

@Oaktavia They can become rascals some times.
