Audubon's Hummingbird's At Home starts March 15

Hummingbirds at Home is a new citizen science initiative from Audubon.  The project will help scientists understand how climate change, flowering patterns and feeding by people are impacting hummingbirds.

On the Hummingbirds at Home website you can track, report on and follow the spring hummingbird migration in real time.  And, a free mobile app makes it easy to report sightings, share photos and learn more about these remarkable birds.

You can participate at any level – from reporting a single sighting to documenting hummingbird activity in your community throughout the life of the project.  You can help document the hummingbirds journey and direct change in the future to ensure these incredible birds do not disappear.

To participate, log on to Hummingbirds At Home

Happy Birding!
J.J.
