The first Saturday of September is also a day to celebrate Hummingbirds! For us, this is the month we say “good-bye ’til next year!” We usually see our last ones (Ruby-throated) in early to mid-September.

Because of climate changes and the impact on their habitat, many species of hummingbirds are currently on the list of vulnerable or endangered species through the IUCN Red List. National Hummingbird Day is here to remind us to appreciate and honor these tiny little creatures.

More, maybe:
