I found a pear shaped hummingbird nest – i verified it against other photos on line – hanging in my orange?

tree. It is empty and appears to have a "tear" from top to nearly the bottom, but was well built and still hanging. There are the remains of a second nest (older dried up but still comparable) next to it. I have hummingbirds every year. Is the tear in the newer nest natural and might it be used again, or would a predator have done that? I also saw down feathers on the ground but no dead birds. Back to my question, do these sack like hummingbird nests have natural long openings/slits?
Hummingbirds are fun, entertaining, full of energy and it’s easy to attract hummingbirds.
