Stop and Go
Hummingbird migration is a stop and go journey. As hummers travel south, they must find places to rest and refuel along the way. Is your yard a valuable stopover site for hungry hummers?
Doubling Their Weight
Hummingbirds may be tiny, but they are big eaters. No animal on earth has a faster metabolism. These birds burn food so fast they often eat 1.5 to 3 times their body weight in food per day.
Fall Migration Starts this Month
