It's Spring in San Diego

This is in our backyard! We have only one orange left on our tree and when Matthew went outside to pick it, he was threatened by a Hummingbird. I don't think he was very scared though. :) The nest has eggs in it, so we'll have to keep watch for baby hummingbirds. We also didn't show it to the kids because it's low to the ground and I'm afraid curiosity might kill the cat, or rather, the bird this time. I just thought this picture was so cool.

Totally cool! We have hummingbirds around here, but I've never seen them nesting. Keep us posted on the babies.

All we have in our backyard is a stray cat that likes to meow at my back door. Not nearly as cute as yours.
