    for one thing they are all small enought that the hummer can hold them in
    its mouth. another reason is because these things are soft so that when the
    eggs are layed the dont get broke. another reason is for when the babies
    hatch the nest isnt hard and wont kill the babies. the probably use these
    for camoflague too if the hummers use lichens the will be well camoflagued
    in a tree. this will allow protection for the babies. they use these
    things to make other animals think the nest is just part of the tree. when
    u look at a hummer nest you think its part of the tree but its not.
