Mondays with Martha #196 - Feeding Birds: Native Plants for Hummingbirds & Other Nectar/Sap Drinkers

To wrap up National Bird Feeding Month, the final post in my feeding wild birds with native plants series focuses on species for hummingbirds, orioles, and other birds that drink nectar and tree sap. Let me help you conserve and purposefully plant species with great nectar and sap resources for your wild birds!

Special thanks to Tracy Anderson for letting me share her hummingbird action shots--they are so hard to capture!
