Broad-tailed hummingbirds lead the flock, with others like Black-chinned and Rufous hummingbirds also visiting Colorado.
Hummingbirds begin to grace Colorado's landscapes from March, sometimes as early as late winter.
Create a hummingbird-friendly garden with native plants and feeders to welcome these agile migrants.
Integrate a variety of native flowering plants to provide natural food sources and protection for hummingbirds.
Set out hummingbird feeders by mid-March, just ahead of the migratory wave's arrival in Colorado.
As summer wanes, hummingbirds prepare to depart Colorado, with most leaving by November.
Keep feeders accessible up to the end of November to support any lingering or late-migrating hummingbirds.
