Event details

Did you know ruby-throated hummingbirds double their weight before the long migration south? How would you double your weight if you were a hummingbird? Drinking sugar water of course! Our birds are gearing up for their long flight and need to plump up! Learn about hummingbird migration and other interesting facts as we sip tea and enjoy some light snacks.
