Welcome to the Ocala National Forest! We hope you enjoy this hummingbird geo-art, brought to you for Finder’s Fest 2017, by the Forest Minions.

 

Look for my bright red feathers during spring and fall migration.  My cousin the Summer Tanager looks similar, but his wings are all red.  Mine have some black on them.  Enjoy me while you can because I don’t stay in the state for long!
