A Hummingbird on My Balcony
21.24
Noah’s family has just moved in to a new apartment on the 22nd floor when an Anna’s hummingbird visits their balcony.
Soon the young boy notices a fuzzy nest being built—like Noah's family, this hummingbird is making a new home. This true story shows the hummingbird through Noah’s eyes as he discovers how these birds feed, care for and raise their young. Alongside Noah's story are facts explaining where Anna's hummingbirds live, their role as pollinators and the threats they face from pollution, pesticides, urban predators and a warming climate. Readers will learn that with a few simple actions, we can all help hummingbirds survive and thrive in urban areas.
"Living with Hummingbirds." Author's note. Full-color photographs.
