Hummingbirds, facing drought and food shortage during the summer months of 2012. With summer winding down, millions of migratory birds are on the move. But his year, things are a bit different, especially for tiny hummingbirds. Drought and climate change have shifted the landscape dramatically.
Lenore Hemingway is being especially careful to keep her 20 feeders filled with sugar water at her home in Sedona, Ariz. and replied,
“You make sure that they have all of the things they need. They have the sugar feeders, which they do rely on their migration. They have all of the flowers they love. It is a commitment, but the joy is getting to view them.”
They are such beautiful Birds so delicate, wonderful documentary.
beautiful people,, it is just sugar water! Birds travel from Mexico to Canada!
I love my hummingbirds. Especially when I go near the feeder and they buzz past my head. It is strange that you can see them in a tree one you really get to know them.
