Attracting Hummingbirds and Butterflies to Your Backyard

Butterflies and hummingbirds are among the most colorful creatures to appear in our backyards – but often their visits are brief, leading us to wish they would stay longer.

Connie Toops, co-author and principal photographer of Hummingbirds and Butterflies, a new book in the Peterson's Digest Backyard Birding series, can help. She’s been gardening for wildlife for years, and knows the best plants and features to attract these colorful sprites.

Join Connie for an informative talk, illustrated by her award-winning images, which will bring hummingbirds and butterflies into your yard and into your heart.
