Hummingbird Banding

A favorite among visitors, this annual event offers a rare chance to see hummingbirds up close. Birds are safely captured, banded, and released by Southeastern Avian Research (SEAR), led by Federally Licensed Master Bander Cyndi Routledge. Guests learn about hummingbird migration, research techniques, and conservation while witnessing these remarkable birds in hand.

Stay connected with the refuge.
