No quote better summarizes why the International Hummingbird Society is so important to the survival of hummingbirds than this, from Senegalese conservationist Baba Dioum:
"In the end, we will conserve only what we love, we will love only what we understand, and we will understand only what we are taught."
​
By becoming a member of the International Hummingbird Society you help us carry out our mission: educating people about hummingbirds and working internationally to protect them. ​​
​
Please join us to help hummingbirds and ensure future generations experience the pure joy and amazement these tiny jewels bring to us.​
