If you like hummingbirds, even a little bit, we have the event for you! Aug. is prime time for hummingbird migration in this area, and a large number of these "ruby gems" stop at the Nature Station on their long journey south. Bill Hilton, Jr. of Operation Rubythroat will give up-close demonstrations of hummingbird banding and talk about their behavior and migration. During the day, learn tips and techniques for gardening for hummingbirds and setting up feeding stations; explore hummingbird biology; and enjoy crafts and games for the kids.
