Stealing Strands

This female hummingbird is invading the spider’s web for next material. Sticky spider web seems to be *the* glue holding the soft fluffy nest together.

    Yes, they do use spider webs in their nests and those nests are tiny. Nice photo. I have never seen one like it before.

    One of my all time favourite birds, even though I’ve yet to see one in the flesh. But it’s on my list of things to see before I die.

    Great piece of information about the glue.
