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 a little diving bird who lives year-round in Florida, but I’m easier to find in the wintertime.  In my breeding plumage I have a pretty line across my beak.  If you see a little bird ducking into the water and emerging far away after a minute or so, it might be me.
