Ruby-Throated Hummingbird

Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds are typically the only hummingbirds you’ll find in the eastern US. They can flap their wings more than 50 times in a second! These tiny birds feed on the nectar of flowers, as well as insects. Your family might attract hummingbirds to your yard with a feeder full of sugar water.

Scarlet Tanager

Scarlet Tanagers are very beautiful but hard to spot. They tend to stick to the tops of trees, where their colorful bodies are hidden far from the eyes of curious people. Count yourself lucky if you see one! They spend summer in eastern forests of the US but might be drawn to backyards with a variety of berry bushes.
