Both baby hummingbirds are still in the nest.  I expect the older one, the one farthest from the camera in the first picture, to fly away tomorrow.  I expect them to stay around after they leave the nest because we have lots of flowering plants.  Tlhe Mother bird will participate in helping them to learn to live outside the nest. The Father bird has nothing to do with raising the babies or seeing them settled into the five-year life of hummingbirds in the world. In the second picture, the older bird is closer to the camera.
