If you’re looking for inspiration read The Hummingbird’s Gift by Sy Montgomery. 

“Hummingbirds are less flesh than fairies. They are little more than bubbles fringed with iridescent feathers – air wrapped in light.”

Hummingbird nests are woven with spider silk so the nest stretches to fit the tiny creatures as they grow.

“These little bubbles of spunk inspire extraordinary tenderness. One autumn, a ruby-throat, on its lonely, five-hundred-mile migration – a journey across the Gulf of Mexico, which can demand twenty-one hours of non-stop flight – landed, spent, on a drilling platform on the Mississippi coast. It was too exhausted to continue. The oil company dispatched a helicopter to fly it to shore.  The hummingbird spent the winter in a gardener’s greenhouse, then left fat and healthy, on its spring migration.”
