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.

 

I’m one of the most common birds in North America. I was introduced in New York in the early 1850s, and I quickly spread across the continent. I can be kind of a pest. If you let me, I will take over all your feeders and nest boxes.
