It is interesting to see a hummingbird nest, much more to see them in the nest

This nest is back in the woods near the creek close to the scarred oak and the bridge. I happened to see a hummingbird fly to that area, and with my binoculars I tried to locate it and the area I focused on was where the bird landed. It was feeding young in the nest. Two days later the nest was empty. The young were almost ready to leave the nest when I observed them. The species of hummingbird is Black-chinned Hummingbird. The nest was very hard to see, so I felt very fortunate to see it!
