Welcome Back, Hummingbirds!

Nurture a sense of wonder for North Carolina’s most common hummingbird resident, the Ruby-Throated Hummingbird, by completing the activities in the EcoExplorer Home Study Kit, Welcome Back, Hummingbirds. This free kit includes all the information needed to set up a properly maintained hummingbird feeding station to observe hummingbirds right in your own backyard, including instructions for making your own feeder using commonly available materials. There’s also a fun craft activity for young children, and information on becoming a hummingbird Citizen Scientist. Email pbsmith4@ncsu.edu for more information.
