Once you have spotted a hummingbird nest in your yard, you must leave it alone. Even if you're concerned about it being in a poor location
Also, getting too close to the nest can garner the attention of some predators that could be eating hummingbirds in your yard.
Instead, give the hummingbirds space and observe them with binoculars instead.
According to United States law, bird nests may only be removed or relocated if they are inactive.
In the case of hummingbirds, you would need to wait several days to make sure there is no activity and that all fledglings have left the nest.
On average, once hummingbird eggs hatch, the young birds will leave the nest after 18 to 28 days.
