Video: Phoebe Has Two Eggs in Her Nest

(The first egg was laid at 9:53 AM on February 21. The second egg was laid on February 24. Takes about two and a half weeks for the eggs to hatch.)

From Cornell Lab of Ornithology:

“As with other hummingbird species, the female raises two young on her own and may raise two broods during a prolonged breeding season. Males begin departing the breeding grounds on southward migration while females are still raising young. The females depart next, to be followed eventually by the juveniles.”

But Phoebe is in Southern California, with mild winters. Perhaps she will have time to raise a third clutch?

Phoebe's new chicks have been named Kouki and Haruka to express hope and
support for Japan's recovery.
