Catching a glimpse of a hummingbird in flight is rare enough as it is — but imagine stumbling upon one of its nests!

“Here is a hummingbird nest my wife found,” wrote the Redditor who posted the photo online yesterday. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen one before.”

Hummingbirds construct their nests out of seeds, feathers, moss, fibers from leaves, spider silk, and other materials.

Now imagine what the chicks will look like when they hatch!
