METADATA PROVIDER   
 
LEARNING OBJECT PROVIDER  
 
DESCRIPTION
Explore.org is the world's leading philanthropic live nature cam network and documentary film channel. Εxplore.org, the online portal for explore, is a community destination where people share thoughts, engage in dialogue, view and email films and photographs, and embed their favorites on blogs and social networking sites. This live cam features an Allen’s Hummingbird who lives in the coastal area of Laguna Niguel, California. She has plenty of nectar sources from which to choose, including this feeder and the trumpet-shaped Violet Churcu in the background. In addition to Aryana’s comings and goings, the camera records lots of songbirds, bees, butterflies, and other hummingbirds flitting about. During mating season, the live cam will be repositioned so viewers can watch the nesting process, from tiny eggs in a walnut-sized nest to the exciting day her nestlings take wing.
