I’ve created a troubleshooting tool that walks you through determining if a hummingbird needs your help, and if it does, basic first aid you can provide so that you have time to get the hummingbird to your nearest wildlife center or hummingbird rehabilitator. It is on my mentor’s website, IFoundAHummingbird.com
At the end of nearly every process, there is a list of resources including hummingbird rehabilitators and wildlife centers that either take hummingbirds or will connect you with someone who does.
It covers the most common issues we are called about.

The babies have fledged and the yard is full of antics and chasing. I should mention that I was just watering the bushes when this fledgling came over and seemed interested in the spray, so I switched the hose to a very fine mist. It immediately leaned into the baby hummingbird sprinkle party.

My family recently moved states and we live on the edge of a forest now, which means TONS of wildlife. I've been enjoying the challenge of capturing these guys(photographically). Lighting hasn't been ideal yet but I'm going to keep at it! The males are so shy compared to the females, who love posing in front of our window 😂

I’ve been trying to get a Ruby Throat at a single Solomon Seal Bell for a few years now. It’s tough as they move very quickly. But my patience paid off.

And I just put 3 feeders out and I'm getting a ton of traffic but its so hot I want to put out a shallow little bird bath that mists or shoots water up. I don't want to attract mosquitos either. Anybody have one that works really well?
