Hummingbirds and Squidoo!
If you want to see an absolutely perfect, totally unselfish lens, you must see this one. A Home for Hummingbirds
and if you are new to Squidoo, there are some things to notice here and learn from, too.
The creator of the lens has used the Text with Big Picture module to make her photos show up large and gorgeous.
She has uploaded her own videos, too....
Notice that her text is spead out throughout the lens -- not one huge paragraph on the whole page.
And she gives us instructions -- exact instructions - on how she built the "big nest"..........
and she also gives us a nectar recipe.
and then she sells a few hummingbird products.............
from now on, every time i think of a question about hummingbirds, I will think of "bakerwoman" and rush to her lens. Granted, I love the hummingbirds.......
but..........even if she sells nothing with this lens ever -- got that? --- even if she sells nothing from this lens ever, she will most likely receive a Squidoo Purple Star, she should get Lens of the Day, and I intend to be one of the ones who nominates her for that, and month after month, she will most likely be in the top tier at Squidoo. (Top Tier lenses are averaging about $22 a month now or more.) And she has built on her following, her fans at Squidoo. I for one will pay attention every time she publishes a new lens. The lady knows what she is doing!
I hope you enjoy as much as I did!

me too re geranium, Louise. I have one on the front porch but it is not hanging, so probably would not feel "safe". I have many hummingbirds using my feeder on the back deck, so I think I am going to hang a brand new geranium basket out there. I cannot imagine the thrill of watching these eggs hatch - or how tiny they must be!
Thank you all for reading and for checking out that beautiful lens! Granddaughter, age 8, and I watched all the videos today. she was totally fascinated!
thanks for sharing this! I loved this lens! even though I live in an appartment in Paris, it made me want to buy a geranium and build a nest! :) Wonderful.
Thank you! I am joan4 at Squidoo. Please drop by any of my lenses any time! I am not a fancy lensmaster at all but I do enjoy it very much. My sister (Ohme at Squidoo) does all the fancy html and stuff. so look at hers for the fancy. she is very artistic. (we have so much fun doing squidoo together tho we live 4 hours apart.)
That is a beautiful lens. Great pictures and very clear text. I love hummingbirds too. We have them here. Fascinating to watch. There are certain flowers they really like. They even like me when I wear yellow. Thanks Joan. I want to see your lenses too. I'm sure they're great.
Thankyou, Wildflower! I appreciate the visits! always! I cannot take credit for that hummingbird lens though. that is way beyond my capabilities as a lensmaster or photographer. she did a beautiful job with that!

I too love hummingbirds, so this caught my on when I logged onto WA. I am new, and have a quick question. When you say that Top Tier lenses are averaging $22 a month... does that mean that the lenses are making $22 a month? That doesn't seem like a lot to be "Top Tier". I have only just gotten my WP blog up, and haven't dove into article writing yet for squidoo and ezine. Just curious as to where I should be focusing my time.
