As
ruby-throated hummingbirds enter the United States from their wintering
grounds, many hit Louisiana, Texas, and others parts of the Gulf
Coast first. How do they get there? Do they brave the open water
or fly over land?
- Draw
an arrow showing the main route you think these first ruby-throated
hummers used to get to Louisiana and Alabama. (You can use a different
color to show how you think others got to Texas.)
- On
the back, answer these questions: Why do you think it's a good
route? Why might it be risky? Can you describe alternate routes?
