From Curiosity to Conservation
Joining Hummingbird Conservation Networks changed how I see nature. Their training helped me identify species I never knew existed!
Conservation Networks
Helping hummingbirds survive, reproduce, and thrive.



For several years, the Hummingbird Monitoring Network (HMN) focused its efforts on monitoring and studying hummingbird populations to obtain important information that supports conservation of these magnificent creatures. Hummingbird Conservation Networks (HCNs) result from integrating community-based conservation ideas into HMN's science-based beginning. HCNs' mission, virtually unchanged from HMN's original mission, is to help hummingbirds survive, reproduce, and thrive while discovering how communities benefit economically, socially, and ecologically through their hummingbird conservation activities. Maintaining hummingbird diversity and abundance throughout the Americas remains a primary focus of the organization. Hummingbirds are unique in their ability to reconnect people, instantly with awe, for nature. They are bearers of light and might be the messengers we need for restoring viability to our world’s living systems.
