Hummingbird Banding

Listen and watch in awe as renowned ornithologist Allen Chartier discusses the natural history of the ruby-throated hummingbird in North America during his presentation from 8:30-9:30am. Then step outside and watch the magic happen as he captures and bands these tiny, winged gems for science from 10:00am-12:00pm. Just inches away from you, he’ll be taking measurements and answering questions about the process, giving you the best looks at the birds that you’ve ever had!

Meet Nature Center.

No registration required and it's free!

This is a rain or shine event, however if we get heavy rain the banding will stop. Regular hand-feeding will be from 1-3pm later in the afternoon.
