Another field season completed! Members of the Healy lab returned to our fieldsite in Alberta to work on wild rufous hummingbirds with our collaborator Professor Andy Hurly. Both of my supervisors, Sue and Dave, joined us for the first leg of the season. The hummingbirds migrate from Mexico and arrive in late May, when our field season begins, and over the course of the next two months we work daily with territorial male hummingbirds. As with most years, we were joined by several undergraduate students who conducted their final year projects on the hummingbirds under our supervision. On top of our data, the fieldsite is a great spot for some nature snaps.
