Hummingbird Nests Are As Small As A Thimble, Be Careful Not To Prune Them

Some hummingbird species are critically endangered, they are absolutely tiny, fragile birds are only a few inches long and their eggs are smaller than a jelly bean. Here’s some tips on how to spot and protect them.

Please remember to carefully check for nests before you trim trees and shrubs.' 34 hummingbird species (10%) are listed as "critically endangered," which means they have a 50/50 chance of extinction within the next ten years. So keeping an eye out for their tiny nests while pruning is essential for their survival.
