First Flight: A Mother Hummingbird’s Story DVD
Sensitively and exquisitely filmed with stunning close-ups, documentary filmakers Noriko and Don Carroll follow a mother hummingbird whose nest has been built on a clothesline under their porch roof. Honey, the female black chinned hummingbird, repairs last years nest and then raises her new brood, all shown in incredible closeups—beginning with the eggs hatching and continuing as they learn to preen and practice with their wings. Youll fall in love with Honey as she nurtures her babies and bravely protects them from the family cat—until finally they take their first flight. 45 minutes long, including a special “Making Of” featurette with the authors and a hummingbird slideshow. An amazing and totally enjoyable experience!

Hummingbirds are fun, entertaining, full of energy and it’s easy to attract hummingbirds.
