On a whim, I stopped at the nursery and garden center just up the street from me yesterday morning before it got too hot. My objective was to see if I could see any pretty blooms. While I was in an enclosed area where gift items are on display, I saw some movement just passing past my head. I looked up and saw a tiny little hummingbird buzzing around inside this light fixture. Then the little fellow sat still. Can you see his tiny little head peeking out just to the left of the light bulb.
I cropped the image so you could get a better look.
It turns out there is a tiny little nest attached to the inside of this light fixture and that's where this little fellow was sitting.
After I watched for a while, the little guy flew out of the fixture landed on this grating that was hanging from the ceiling.
That was a totally unusual find but I guess living at a garden center is a pretty good option for a hummingbird.
