Another swallow pic. Here are some finches and hummingbirds. Finches can be seen in flocks of 20 or more. Often they are in low level bushes and nest somewhere in there. Hummingbirds may come in greens, reds, purples...multi colored possibly. They have been seen in the Basin more of the entire year suggesting that this is their home. Their nests are really tiny to maybe 3 inches wide and 1.5 inch hole inside. The mother will remain stone inactive warming the eggs below. Yours truly saw one, blue colored, guarding the little nest on a job site in May.

These pics are amazingly beautiful. I wish I knew which is which, but I cannot distinguish that because they are grouped together. My favorite is the last/bottom picture of the IV series (purple/lilac chest).
The three little birds reminds me that I need to listen to the Bob Marley CD again about the three little birds who are singing "Don't worry about a thing , cause every little thing will be OK,"
