Baby Hummingbird Eyes

The Hummingbirds are now 11 days old. Their eyes are now open and, of course, they are still ready to eat.

Q: Why do baby hummingbirds have long necks?

A: Because thier mother stick her bill all the way in to feed them.

The babies hatched one day apart.
In this picture they are four and five days old.
