Most of us are fascinated by hummingbirds. Although they are tiny, these birds are among the most feisty and resilient creatures in the natural kingdom. This presentation will offer information about their natural history and life cycle. Jane will focus on our local hummingbird, the ruby-throated hummer that breeds in this area. She also will talk about other hummingbirds that show up for us in the fall and winter!
Jane will present about what you can do to attract hummingbirds to your garden. In particular, she will showcase plants that they love, many of which will be offered by the Arboretum for sale online during this special event, just in time for the peak of fall migration! The plants purchased will be available for pick-up at Hilltop in mid-September when they arrive from the nursery. The evening of the presentation, you will be sent a list of the plants available for purchase to review as you watch Jane’s presentation, as well as a link to purchase them at Hilltop’s online store the day after the program.
The Zoom Presentation will be recorded and posted on YouTube if you are unable to watch the live presentation. You will be emailed a link to watch the presentation at your leisure as many times as you would like the morning after the presentation, as well as the link to the online store to purchase plants.
