The hummingbird has added a considerable coating of lichen pieces to the outside of her nest. It would work great as camouflage in a tree. I'm not sure she's really blending in with the string lights though. She is on the nest for longer periods of time, and away for shorter. Makes sense. She will bring back little pieces of fluff and tuck them inside the nest.
She'll feed at some nearby flowers in the back yard, and also at flowers in the front yard.
I'll start watching for babies in about a week or so.

For a housewarming gift, a friend gave us a hummingbird feeder, but I'm afraid we're in the wrong zone. You're lucky! I'm glad they've come to visit you.
