We have a female hummingbird nesting right outside our upstairs hall window. Cheap iPhone 7 camera won't take good pics, and we don't have a good dedicated camera. Noticed the nest yesterday morning - she was turning around and hunkering down to get it ready. Mostly spider webs with a few lichens. By yesterday afternoon there was one egg. Might be another today. We can also see the nest from the ground now that we know where to look.
On a related note, refilled the hummingbird feeder.
It it true that we only have ruby-throateds here. The red is structural color, and looks black unless the light hits it just right.
ETA: a pic of our hummingbird nest. Can't see the egg from this angle - it's about the size of a pea.
