    We have been fascinated by the hummingbirds in our backyard lately. I’m wondering if anyone has read any good living books about hummingbirds? My oldest is first grade.

    In case anyone is interested, we have enjoyed the two videos on this website about hummingbirds:

    There is a neat DVD/book combo called First Flight that we enjoyed.

    I saw that on a previous post and have tried to look it up where we could view it online for free. Our library doesn’t have it either. Do you have a direct link to this video?

    No, I’m sorry. I own the dvd/book combo. If you lived close I could lend it. Laughing

    I’m interested enough I might buy a copy. Do you think it is worth having the book also, or is just the video enough?

    We just checked out a bunch of bird books from our local library to have on hand for upcoming studies. One of them is titled The Hungry Hummingbird by April Pulley Sayre. It looks like it may be a nice read for my younger children.

    Ruby Throat by Robert McClung.  Older and out of print but I LOVE McClung for younger children.  I actually had a person join my library for his books.
