Tracking Rufous Hummingbirds’ Travel Itinerary Zoom Broadcast
Join Friends of Alaska National Wildlife Refuges at Alaska Maritime Refuge Visitor Center on Tuesday, March 17 at 5 pm for a watch party to hear Tracking Rufous Hummingbirds' Travel Itinerary presented by Todd Eskelin, Kenai National Wildlife Refuge wildlife biologist. Hummingbirds in Alaska? Yes! The Rufous Hummingbird is the northernmost of all hummingbirds and the only one known to breed on the Kenai Peninsula. Come hear about these little birds with the longest migration and a declining population. Todd and partners are starting a new program attaching tiny radio trackers to the birds to determine what is going on during migration that might be the answer to the loss of juveniles. Todd will be presenting at Kenai Refuge Visitor Center in Soldotna. Or ZOOM from wherever you are with the link and recording to be posted here https://alaskarefugefriends.org/hummingbirds-3-26/, This is a regular monthly meeting of Friends and all are welcome.
