Report Sightings!

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 possible stopover site?

"This time of year our numbers increase significantly. The hummers are consuming about 10 cups of nectar daily plus I have a good supply of flowers for them."
