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.

 

My everyday feathers are white and boring, but in my breeding plumage, I’m much fancier. I get a green mandible and fluffy tail feathers.  I’m one of the more common white birds that you’ll see in Florida’s marshes.  I’m bigger than my cousins the Snowy and Cattle Egrets.
