Hummingbird migration patterns and seasonal movements.

Geographic Range: Hummingbirds are native to the Americas, ranging from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego

Seasonal Shifts: Migration typically occurs seasonally, with hummingbirds moving between breeding grounds in the north 

North American Migration: In North America, most hummingbirds migrate between the United States and Canada in the north to Mexico and Central America in the south

Timing: Migration timing varies by species and location. Generally, northern hemisphere hummingbirds migrate south in the fall 

Trigger for Migration: The primary trigger for migration is food availability. Hummingbirds follow nectar sources and insect populations

Routes: Migration routes can be overland or along coasts, depending on species. They tend to follow predictable pathways that optimize feeding and resting opportunities.

Wintering Grounds: Hummingbirds spend the winter in regions with milder climates, such as southern Mexico, Central America, and parts of South America
