The eggs may hatch as early as next Monday........I don't want to miss this as I have never seen a baby hummingbird. The questionn and answer section said the nest is the size of a golf ball, and the eggs are the size of tic-tacs......that she has four nests in this rose bush, and has been there for several years. Very interesting!!!!

I'm replying last nights hatching. I'm glad they offered that, otherwise I'd miss it.
