How to Encourage Hummingbird Conservation

Plant native flowers like bee balm and trumpet vine to attract hummingbirds. Provide fresh water sources and avoid pesticides to create a hummingbird-friendly environment.

Hang hummingbird feeders filled with a simple sugar solution. Keep them clean and change the nectar regularly to prevent mold growth and ensure hummingbirds stay healthy.

Create sheltered spaces with trees and shrubs for nesting. Hummingbirds need safe spots to build their tiny nests and raise their young.

Avoid using chemical herbicides and insecticides in your garden. These can be harmful to hummingbirds and their food sources like insects and nectar-producing plants.

Participate in citizen science projects to help track hummingbird populations and migrations. Your observations can contribute to important conservation efforts.

Spread awareness about the importance of hummingbird conservation. Educate others about the threats these birds face and inspire more people to take action to protect them.
