Hummingbird Banding Demonstration
Prairie Ridge Ecostation for Wildlife Learning
Prairie Ridge Ecostation
Saturday, July 14th 9am-noon
No pre-registration; free; all ages but children with adult.
We’ll have hummingbird banding expert Susan Campbell on hand to demonstrate how hummingbirds are captured, banded, and processed before release. Scientists use coded bands to tell individual birds apart and track their movements. Get an up-close look at some of our most energetic and charismatic birds!
