Description
I was fortunate enough to have a hummingbird nest in a guava tree in my back yard. I suppose it chose the spot since it was close to a banana tree that was preparing to bear fruit.Related content

Thanks! LoL sadly the hummingbird has long layed it's eggs, hatched, grown and flew off. As for the Flowers, the bananas grew and are all eaten too

Thanks! I used a Canon 20D which sadly ran it's shutter lifespan so it's out of commission at the moment till I can pay to get it fixed.

Thank you! I was just also fortunate enough that the hummingbird built it's nest nearby and my bananna tree was flowering at the time so I was able to stalk it at my leasure ^_^
