Allen's Hummingbirds - California / Phoebe
Kinderchick:
According to report on website, second chick appeared strong and healthy at dusk. So now we just wait and see how this unfolds. :-\
Kinderchick:
Looks as if the first chick just pulled the rest of the shell off the second chick while Phoebe left the nest. :) Second chick is still moving quite a bit. I can hear the sounds of crows but apparently the webcam host has put up some type of crow deterrent net.
Kinderchick:
OMG! Lots of drama at the hummingbird nest today! :o I missed it all. Had tons of errands to attend to all day. ::) Just checked and it looks as if the second chick is still moving, although seems to still be partially in the shell. It's head is moving around a bit. Mom just returned and fed the first chick but not the second one. Apparently, the second chick has not eaten yet. That is not a good sign. Maybe Phoebe knows it is not doing well? :-\ I do hope that it will survive, but I guess time will tell.
Helen b:
mom just poking the little one a bit to wake him up but no success yet, he is breathing and moving.
susha:
Baby #2 fell out of the nest and the host thought it was dead, but then saw a sign of life and put it back. :o Might just be stunned, but hasn't eaten yet. Lots of drama on this site! Everyone's waiting to see if chick will survive! ???
