Hummingbird nest in fallen and found Sweet Gum ball tree branch.
A found, fallen tree branch contained a tiny hummingbird nest created with spiderwebs, sweet gum ball seed pod, and lichens for camouflage. In general, male hummingbirds contribute in no way to the building of nests or the care of young (there are a few rare reports of male Ruby-throated and Male Rufous Hummingbirds incubating eggs. There is one report of a male Anna's Hummingbird feeding young.)* *Larry & Terrie Gates of http://hummingbirdworld.com/
