Spotting a hummingbird brings joy to any onlooker. And, by making your yard more enticing to them, you can enjoy the sight from your very own doorstep.
There are hundreds of species of these tiny, American natives, with many sporting brilliant colors of purples, greens, and blues. Some varieties can flap their wings more than 50 times per second – and it's the resulting humming noise from which they get their name.
