"Nestled" Ruby-Throated Hummingbird Family

The latest LKM hummingbird painting features a full family, with the two young birds sequestered in a cluster of honeysuckle vines, and so the title "Nestled" seems to be appropriate for this painting.

 

It doesn't take long for two pea-sized eggs to morph into a pair of young birds that completely fill the space within the quarter-size nest, effectively camouflaged by lichens and lined with soft spider webs.
