Migration and Hummingbirds
Can you imagine the instinct birds have to know the whens and wheres to migrate? In spring their migration destination is most often their starting point, the place they were born. Hummingbird watch has begun. They set their internal GPS’s weeks ago from the southern regions where they migrated to in the fall. Instinct now signals the search for an abundance of nectar.
