I had the joy of watching the process of hummingbirds coming into the world this early spring time. The miracle is still with me.

According to Ted Andrews, author of Animal Speak, Mother Hummingbirds are a symbol for accomplishing that which seems impossible. And, her two eggs are symbolic for the inner self — “the feminine to which we must give birth and expression to find our own joy.” May you find your joy on this abundant first day of April!

Here’s a great video of the activity within a hummingbird nest that shows the quick process of a hummingbird hatching, growing and taking it’s first flight.
