So, the other day Graham came in and said he found a baby bird outside our door. We had no idea what to do so I called my friend Christie to ask advice. Since we could not find the nest we went ahead and out her in a pan and then tried to decide what to do from then. We had sandy babysitting the kids that night so she took over the care of the bird and was able to get her to drink water with a dropper. It was Sandy who realized that it was actually a baby hummingbird.
Dave and Dawn gave us some nectar to feed her and as of this afternoon she is still doing great!! We went and got a hanging basket and put it into the tree were we found her and her mommy has come and feed her some as well. The kids are loving this and we will keep helping the mommy out.
