Now that the spring is arriving, your garden will fill with bloom of life. Most probably, you are very excited to trim your existing plants or you might plan to change the layout of the garden. You can also restructure it as a whole. However, beware when you are doing something like this; you might be endangering some of the unexpected inhabitants.
There is no one amongst us who does not adore the hummingbird. We love them because they are beautiful and they have a unique form. In addition, we love the astounding way of their flight. Despite of the fact that all of us love this little beautiful bird, most of us are just less familiar with their habitat. We do not know how they would nest and we do not know that what protection we can provide to the homes of the hummingbirds against destruction. Therefore, we are lucky that “United States Fish and Wildlife Service” is available for our help.
The main and first task of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service is to protect the ecology of the country.
They have also sent an announcement for all the lovers of nature, this spring. The announcement says, “Hummingbird eggs are tiny, about the size of jelly beans! Please remember to carefully check for nests before you trim trees and shrubs this spring.”
It sounds simple, isn’t it?

If you haven’t seen the nest of a hummingbird in all your life, then you can treat up yourself. These alluring bundles of the forestry are no less than the art of the nature. The surprising fact about them is that “they only weigh less than the one tenth of an ounce.” Now, we think you know the reason you need to keep looking for them actively, because they are small and anyone could miss them easily. Hummingbirds make their delicate nests by using different things, which include leaves, spider webs and the moss. A female hummingbird loves to design her nest with the small pieces (bits) of the lichen. In this way, it remains in camouflage from the prying eyes.
This is the effective approach for hummingbirds to hide themselves from their predators. However, this approach is so effective that it also hides the nests of the hummingbirds from the well-wishing humans, who might end up hurting them even without knowing.
These small wonders seems like they are truly something that emerged out from a beautiful fairytale.
How will it come in your knowledge that a family of the hummingbirds is going to setup their nest somewhere near you?
The hummingbirds live all over United States. Most probably, you will stumble across one of them anywhere and conveniently. The hummingbird is a versatile creature, they build their nests wherever it is most suitable and wherever the conditions are in their best interest.
Hummingbirds love to live in the gardens, particularly in a well-maintained garden. The reason is that these designed places are convenient and comfortable. You can draw in the hummingbirds just by using hummingbird feeders, the flowers rich with nectar and the birdbaths. Now, if you see your tiny fluttering friends somewhere nearby, there are high chances that they are building their nest in that area.
Hummingbird is one of the most marvelous creations of nature we can find on this planet. They are a source of infinite joy for the birdwatchers and they are completely harmless to the human beings. Now, you need to keep this in mind that hummingbirds could nest in your garden during this spring. We all share the responsibility to defend and protect the beautiful life in our own ecosystem.
