Getting to know the Rufous Hummingbird

Have you seen a quick dash of copper flying about? It’s not a shiny new penny- it’s the Rufous Hummingbird! These tiny little Hummingbirds travel from their winter home in Mexico all the way to Alaska- nesting further North than any other Hummingbird! Not only do they fly the farthest - they tend to wander to other areas of North America as well!
The Hummingbirds brain is up to 5 times larger than songbirds- which makes their memory remarkable- often going back to the same locations year after year. So put out your nectar feeder and have nectar rich flowers in your yard- chances are the hummingbirds that stick around are your special guests and have visited you before!
Stop by the store or shop online to help fuel their flight.
