SynopsisOne of nature's smallest birds, a Black-chinned Hummingbird, built her nest on a clothesline in a backyard in Las Vegas, NV. The clothesline happened to belong to a team of documentary filmmakers, Noriko and Don Carroll, authors of the highly acclaimed book, First Flight: A Mother Hummingbird's Story (pub. Andrews McMeel). This enchanting and remarkably detailed nature film reveals the tireless efforts of mom bird, who the Carrolls named Honey, as she furbished her tiny nest with delicate spider web and soft plant fibers to prepare for arrival of her eggs. Stunning close-up photography brings you into the nest as the hatchlings emerge from their shells. As small as two plump little raisins, the chicks are dubbed Ray and Zen. A dedicated mom, Honey courageously fights off predators, nurturing and feeding her helpless chicks as they begin to grow into beautiful young hummingbirds. The Carroll team spent an additional three years documenting Honey's life on video for this remarkable production. Informative narration by the authors and an inspiring sound track by the critically acclaimed musicians: Suzanne Teng, Jeff Wahl, Justin Bianco, Richard Savio, Mutandina help round out this story that is both educational and delightfully entertaining. First Flight is appropriate for all ages.
