An Excellent Book: ‘First Flight’

I just finished reading First Flight by Noriko and Don Carroll. This book follows the life of a mother hummingbird they named Honey. The photography is amazing, showing over 50 photos of Honey, her two jellybean sized eggs inside the nest, the blind and nude baby birds and many other photos the like of which I haven’t seen anywhere else. It follows Honey and the baby birds while they grow and finally fly out of the nest. While Honey is still feeding her first two babies, she laid her next two eggs in another nest. This book is beautiful and amazing!
