VISITING WITH HUELL HOWSER IS MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH A GENEROUS GRANT FROM THE RALPH M. PARSON'S FOUNDATION.

>> Huell: WELL HELLO EVERYBODY HERE WE ARE IN THE NATURAL MUSEUM IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY.

WE'RE STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF "BIRD HALL" BIRDS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD EVERY SHAPE AND SIZE.

WE CAME TO BIRD HALL, IN SEARCH OF KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION ANDEç INSIGHT ABOUT A PARTICULAR BIRD THAT IS VERY VERY POPULAR HERE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

AND TO GET THAT INFORMATION, AND ALL OF HAVE BEEN INVITED TO GO BEHIND THE SCENES OF "BIRD HALL".

OKAY, WE ARE--BIFS TO SAY BACKSTAGE BUT BEHIND THE SCENES.

KIMBO IS GOING TO BE OUR HOST.

>> I'M THE ORNOLOGY, I MAKE CARE OF THE BIRDS.

>> Huell: AND YOU KNOW WHY WE'RE HERE?

>> YOU'RE INTERESTED IN HUMMING BIRDS.

>> Huell: HUMMING BIRDS ARE POPULAR IN CALIFORNIA.

AND YOU ARE THE HUMMING BIRD MAN.

WE'RE GOING TO GET THE INFORMATION FROM YOU.

TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT HUMMING BIRDS?

>> WELL THEY'RE TINY AND INCREDIBLY DIVERSE, ONLY FOUND IN THE NEW WORLD.

ANDEç LESS DIVERSE HERE THAN SA NORTHERN SOUTH AMERICAN BUT WE STILL HAVE A DOZEN DIFFERENT SPECIES AND YOUR YARD MAY HAVE FOUR OR FIVE.

THEY ARE FRENETIC AND KNOWN FOR BEING HOLER AROUND FLOWERS.

THEY ARE JUST SO DIFFERENT FROM OUR OTHER BIRDS THEY REALLY CAPTURE THE IMAGINATION.

>> Huell: LET'S BREAK THAT A LITTLE BIT.

YOU HAD A PICTURE.

THIS IS QUITE A PICTURE.

KIND OF SHOWING HOW SMALL THE HUMMING BIRD REALLY IS.

THERE IS ONE SITTING ON THE END OF A PENCIL.

>> WELL THAT'S NOT THEIR NATURAL HABITAT, A VERY WELL-KNOWN HUMMING BIRD PHOTOGRAPH.

>> Huell: IT WAS STAGED.

>> WE'VE GOT HUMMING BIRDS HERE ALMOST AS SMALL AS THAT.

THAT ONE IS FROM CUBA.

THEY MAY WEIGH LESS THAN 2 GRAMS.

>> Huell: REALLY?

THE FACT THEY'RE SMALL AND WINGS ARE ALWAYS MOVING, HOW FAST ARE THE WINGS MOVING?

>> IT'S HARD TO COUNT, BUT IF YOU SLOW DOWN PHOTOGRAPHY YOU CAN COUNT.

>> Huell: SOME HAVE COUNTED.

>> ABOUT 50 OR 60 TIMES PER SECOND.

çú>.

>> IF YOU GET TO A REALLY BIG HUMMING BIRD.

>> Huell: WE'VE GOT SOME DISPLAYS HERE.

THESE ARE STUFFED HUMMING BIRDS.

>> THESE ARE SPECIMENS CONNECTED.

DOWN IN SOUTH AMERICAN.

THIS IS CALLED A GIANT HUMMING BIRD AND / T AMERICAN.

>> Huell: CAN WE PUT IT SIDEWAYS--OH THERE IT IS.

>> IF YOU HOLD IT CAREFULLY OF THE BODY, I'LL TRUST THROUGH.

>> Huell: LOOK AT THE SIZE THERE.

>> THEY ARE WINGS ARE SLOWER, SO THERE IS A CORRELATION OF WING BEAT AND SIZE NEGATIVE CORRELATION.

>> Huell: AND WHAT'S THE DEAL ON THE BEAK?

STH.

THEY ARE PRIMARY NECTAR AND ALSO POLLNATING.

AND A LONG EVOLVED RELATIONSHIP.

BUT THEY DON'T ALL HAVE LONG BAEKZ AND DON'T ALL HAVE SHORTER BEAK.

>> Huell: LOOK AT THIS BEAK.

>> YOU CAN SEE IT AROUND HERE.

>> Huell: WALLED WHAT?

>> THE SWORD BEAK HUMMING BIRD AND THAT BIRDS PROBES INTO LONG PLANTS THAT HAVE VERY LONG TUBES.

>> Huell: SOMETHING IN THE RAIN FOREST.

>> ANDI'S MOUNTAINS.

>> AND AT THE OTHER EXTREMES WE HAVE HUMMING BIRDS THAT VIRTUALLY HAVE NO BEAK.

>> Huell: THIS IS JUST A TEENY TEENY LITTLE HUMMING BIRD WITH A VERY SMALL BEAK.

>> AND IT OBVIOUSLY IS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO PROBE INTO A LONG FLOWER.

EACH BEAK IS ADAPTED TO DIFFERENT.

>> Huell: IS THIS FULL GROWN?

>> YES, IT'S FULL GROWN.

SOME HAVE LONG CURVED FWHAILZ GET FWHAILZ--BILLS.

OUR HUMMING BIRDS IN CALIFORNIA, I HATE TO SEE á SAY IT, MORE IN THE BORING END.

THIS IS FOR EXAMPLE--.

>> Huell: HERE'S ONE OF OUR GOOD OLD SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HUMMING BIRD.

CAN WE HOLD THAT UP.

>> THAT'S A FEMALE, SO NOT SHOWING A LOT OF GLITTERING OF THE MALE.

>> Huell: YOU CAN SEE THE COLOR IN THE BACK.

>> THE BACK IS GREEN.

>> Huell: AND THIS IS CALLED?

>> ANNA'S HUMMING BIRD.

>> Huell: HOW DID IT GET THAT NAME?

>> I SHOULD KNOW THAT, A LOT OF BIRDS ARE NAMED EITHER FRIENDS OR ASSOCIATED OF THE DISCOVER OR SOMETIMES FEMALE COMEPANION'S WIVES THERE IS VIRGINIA GRACE'S THAT.

>> Huell: OURS ARE CALLED ANNA'S.

>> AND ANOTHER ONE IS THE COSTA'SEç HUMMING BIRD--THIS IS A HATE.

>> Huell: OH, LOOK THERE IS THE COLOR.

I DON'T KNOW WHETHER THE CAMERA CAN GET THAT CLOVER.

IT'S ALMOST A FLUORESCENT COLOR.

>> IT'S ARODECENT.

>> Huell: BOY THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL.

>> THEY ARE.

>> AND WE HAVE SOME LITTLE HUMMING BIRD EGGS.

AND WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT A LITTLE EGG, HERE YOU GO RIGHT HERE.

THOSE ARE LITTLE EGGS.

>> THEY ARE TINY, OUR HUMMING BIRDS LAY TWO EGGS, THE FEMALE DOES ALL THE WORK OF THE INCUBATION AND THE NEST ARE CONSTRUCTED A LITTLE BIT OF SPIDER WEB, IN THIS CASE IT'S FUSS FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE SICK--SYCAMORE LEAFS.

THE YOUNG STAY IN THE NEST BEFORE THEY ARE ABLE TO FLY.

THE YOUNG HAVE TO GET NICE POWERFUL FLIGHT MUSCLE AND OFF TO FEED.

>> Huell: WHY DO YOU THINK THAT HUMMING BIRDS HAVE SO CAPTURED THE IMAGINATION, IS IT THE SIZE, THE WAY THE WINGS MOVE?

WHAT IS IT?

>> I THINK IT'S ALL OF THAT.

THEY ARE MIGRATEORY, SO DIFFERENT SPECIES COME AT THE DIFFERENT TIMES OF YEAR.

YOU CAN PUT OUT A FEEDERS AND ATTRACT THEM RIGHT OUTSIDE YOUR KITCHEN WINDOW ANDEç GET A MACE I THINK--AMAZINGLY CLOSE L. IF YOU'RE A WEARING OF RED ON YOU, THEY MAY HOVER IN YOUR FACE AND MISTAKE YOU FOR FOOD.

>> Huell: AND THEY ARE CONSTANTLY MOVING.

AREN'T THEY?

>> UH-HUH.

>> Huell: EVERY NOW AND THEN I SEE ONE SITTING, BUT THAT'S VERY VERY UNUSUAL.

>> WELL THEY ARE DEFEND GOOD FOOD SOURCES.

AND THE MALES IN PARTICULAR WILL DRIVE AWAY OTHER MALE, OTHER INTRUDERS.

ONLY A FEW SECONDS GO BY BEFORE THEY HAVE TO CHASE SOMEBODY ELSE AWAY.

>> Huell: WE HAVE LEARNED A LOT FROM YOU AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THERE IS SOME BEAUTIFUL HUMMING BIRD BOOKS.

>> A POPULAR SUBJECT.

>> Huell: FILLED WITH BEAUTIFUL PICTURES.

>> PHOTOGRAPHY TAKES A LOT OF--AND YOU'VE GOT TO GET THE LIGHTING JUST RIGHT.

BUT SOME PEOPLE ARE VERY ACCOMPLISHED B ON IT.

>> Huell: YOU HAVE TOLD US ABOUT HUMMING BIRD BUT THERE IS MORE TO OUR ADVENTURE.

WE HAVE BEEN INVITED TO WOOD LAND HILLS TO VISIT A FAMILY'S HOME THAT IS LITERALLY, THEIR YARD, IS FILLED WITH HUMMING BIRDS.

AND THEY HAVE SOME QUESTIONS THEY WANT TO ASK YOU.

>> SURE.

>> Huell: WE'LL TAKE THE EXPERT OUT TO WHERE THE HUMMING BIRD ARE.

BECAUSE AS BEAUTIFUL AS THESE ARE, THESE HUMMING BIRD--THESE HUMMING BIRDS NOT ON THE GOING ANYWHERE.

>> YOU CAN LEARN A LOT OF FROM MUSEUM SPECIMEN, BUT NOTHING ON BEHAVIOR.

>> Huell: SO WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO IS RIGHT NOW IS GO OUT TO WOOD LAND HILLS AND LOOK AT SOME SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, WHAT ARE THEY CALLED?

ANNA'S.

>> ANNA'S AND THERE MIGHT BE SOME OTHER KINDS.

>> Huell: MAYBE SOME MORE.

IF ANYBODY WILL KNOW IT WILL BE YOU.

WE'RE GOING TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT THIS FAMILY MIGHT HAVE.

WE'RE OFF TO WOOD LAND HILLS.

>> Huell: WELL WE HAVE TAKEN A NICE LITTLE DRIVE DOWN THE 101 FREEWAY.

WE'RE IN THE SAN FERNANDO VALLEY.

AND THIS IS WHERE THE STONE FAMILY LIVES.

THE STONE FAMILY SENT ME AN EMAIL AND SAID THAT THEIR BACK YARD WAS INFESTED ALTHOUGH THAT SOUNDS MEG NEGATIVE IT'S A GOOD WORD--.

>> WITH HUMMING BIRDS.

>> Huell: AND THEY'RE CURIOUS AS TO WHY THEY HAVE SO MANY.

WE'RE AT THE STONES RIGHT NOW.

>> GOOD MORNING.

>> GOOD MORNING.

>> Huell: HOW ARE YOU DOING?

>> VERY WELL.

>> Huell: THERE STONE AND MRS. STONE, I ASSUME.

>> YES.

>> Huell: THIS IS KIMBO GARRET WITH THE NATURAL MUSEUM OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY.

HE'S THE HUMMING BIRD EXPERT.

>> OH GOOD.

>> Huell: ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ABOUT HUMING BIRDS, HE'S GOT THE ANSWER.

CAN WE LOOK AT THE HUMMING BIRDS?

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> Huell: WHAT WAS IT THAT YOU TOLD US ABOUT YOUR BACK YARD?

>> IN THE SUMMERTIME, YOU CAN SEE 30 TO 40 BIRDS AT ONE TIME.

AND LAST SUMMER IT JUST EXPLODED.

LIKE MOST PEOPLE WE HAD A FEEDER BY THE KITCHEN FEEDER AND IF WE GOT A BIRD IN THE MORNING AND IN THE AFTERNOON, WE WERE HAPPY.

BUT THE SUMMER BEFORE, WE STARTED GETTING 2 AND 3 AND 5 AND 6 AND 7 AT A TIME.

THEY WOULD SQUABBLE A LITTLE BIT WITH EACH OTHER.

SO I THOUGHT I'LL PUT UP ANOTHER FEED HEER, I DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO GO HUNGRY.

I ADDED ANOTHER FEED.

SO WE'VE GOT SIX FEEDERS NOW AND WE'VE GOT YOU CAN SEE ABOUT 40 BIRDS AT A TIME.

>> Huell: 40 BIRDS IN YOUR BACK YARD.

>> AND THE FUN PART IS WHEN YOU STAND OUT THEY FLY BY YOUR HEAD, YOUR LEG--.

>> Huell: COME ON HERE, THIS IS WHAT YOU WERE TELLING US.

>> I HEAR IT NOW.

>> Huell: THAT'S THE WEED EAT EATER NEXT DOOR.

>> THEY'VE GOT ANNA'S.

>> THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO KNOW.

WE'VE BEEN SEEING ALL THESE BEAUTIFUL COLORED BIRDS, WITH RED, AND ORANGE.

>> Huell: CAN WE WALK OVER HERE.

>> ABSOLUTELY.

>> Huell: OH THERE ARE YOUR FEEDERS OVER THERE.

NOW, I DON'T SEE ANY LUMG BIRDS?

>> WELL YOU HAVE TO BE WE'RE MAKING A LOT OF THE ACTIVITY AND THAT'S THE ONE THING THAT WILL SCARE THEM AWAY IS THE MOVEMENT.

BUT IF I'M WORKING ON THE WARD, UNDERNEATH WHERE THEY'RE FEEDING IT DOES NOT BOTHER MEMBER BOTHER--THEM.

>> Huell: THERE THEY COME, ONE, TWO, THREE, ARE THERE MORE?

>> BE PATIENT.

>> Huell: FOUR, YOU'VE GOT TWO UP ON THE WIRE.

>> AND IF YOU KEEP YOUR EYE ON THE TREE, THEY SEEM TO LIVE TL, AND THEY COME ASSUMING OUT OF THAT TREE.

NOW YOU SEE A FEW MORE.

>> TWO DIFFERENT KINDS THERE.

>> Huell: LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THESE BIRDS.

>> I DON'T KNOW IF YOU NOTICE THE ONE, ONE WILL COME IN ROUGHING THEIR TAIL.

A LITTLE BIT SMALLER, THESE ARE CALLED ALAN'S HUMMING BIRD.

THE MOST WE'RE SEEING AROUND IS THE ANNA'S HUMMING BIRD, THAT'S A HALE, AND IT'S A COMMON YEAR-ROUND HUMMING BIRD.

THE ALAN'S HAVE GOTTEN MORE COMMON.

THEY SPREAD THEIR WINGS THROUGH THE PENINSULA, BECAUSE OF THE FEEDERS AND ALL THE EX SO EXOTIC PLANTS.

>> Huell: THERE'S GOING TO BE ABOUT TEN OF THEM.

>> THAT'S THE THING IF YOU JUST BE PATIENT AND EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, THEY SORT OF SWARM, WHICH MEANS THEY ALL COME OUT OF THE WIRES THEY'RE IN THE SKY, THEY'RE JUST EVERYWHERE.

>> Huell: I WAS THINKING DRIVING OVER HERE, OF A QUESTION I FORGOT TO ASK YOU OVER AT THE HUGH SEEM, THESE BIRDS ARE THEY BUILT DIFFERENT--HOW CAN THEY MOVE SO QUICKLY?

>> THEY ARE DIFFERENT.

THEY ARE BASICALLY PUT TOGETHER WITH THE SAME PARTS AS OTHER BIRDS, BUT THE PARTS ARE DIFFERENT SHAPES.

THE BREAST MUSCLE IS SPECTACULAR AND THAT'S THE MOST IMPORTANT MUSCLE.

AND ALSO THE WAY THAT THE WING BONE, THE SHAPE THE WAY THEY ATTACH AND THE RELATIVE LENGTHS OF THE WING BONES.

ARE SHE DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER BIRDS.

THEY ARE CALLED SWIFTS, BUT THIS STRUCTURE OF THE WINGS AND BREAST MUSCLE WILL ALLOW US TO HOVER.

>> Huell: NOT ONLY DO THEY HOVER, BUT THEY ALMOST DART FROM SIDE TO SIDE.

>> RIGHT, THEY ARE THE ONLY BIRDS THAT CAN ACTIVELY FLY BACK YARDS.

>> I WAS READING A BOOK LAST NIGHT, BY COINCIDENCE, AND THEIR WINGS GO ON A FIGURE-EIGHT.

WHICH ALLOWS THEM TO GO FARTHER DID--FORTFORWARD AND BACKWARDS.

>> Huell: HOW DID YOU GET FASCINATED WITH THEM.

>> THE SPEED OF THE WINGS, THEY BLUR IN YOUR EYES.

YOU TRY TO SEE THEM.

YOU TELL YOURSELF, IF I LOOK HARD ENOUGH, YOU CAN'T.

>> Huell: HOW FAST IS IT THEY GO?

>> IT DEPENDS ON THE SPECIES, BUT 70 TO 80 FOR THE SMALLER.

>> Huell: AND FOR ANNA'S?

FRMENT >> I'M GUESSING IN THE 50 OR 40.

>> HE SAID THAT THE COMMON SPECIES IS ANNA.

>> I READ A BOOK LAST NIGHT, SHE WAS A BEAUTIFUL WOMEN--DON'T TEST ME ON THIS.

>> YOU KNOW MORE THAN I DO ABOUT THAT.

>> I DIDN'T WRITE THE ANSWERS ON MY ARM.

>> Huell: WHAT DO YOU ALL DO JUST SIT BACK HERE, YOU'VE GOT A NICE LITTLE VALLEY POO.

>>-PATIO.

>> YEAH, A CUP OF COFFEE, DURING SUMMER, YOU CAN GET OUT EARLY AND JUST HAVE COFFEE AND SEE THE BIRDS.

>> THE MORNING AND EARLY EVENING--THEY REALLY FOLLOW THE LIGHT.

BEFORE SUNRISE THEY'RE NOT HERE.

BUT AFTER SUNRISE THEY'RE HERE.

IN THE EVENING IT'S TERRIFIC, THEY JUST FLY RIGHT BY YOUR HEAD.

BY HAVING THE FEEDERS IN DIFFERENT LOCATIONS, IT GIVES THEM A DIFFERENT DESTINATION.

AND IF YOU POSITION YOURSELF AT THE TABLE, THEY'LL ZOOM FROM THE KITCHEN FEEDER OUT TO THE YARD AND BACK.

YOU THINK THEY'RE GOING THROUGH YOU, THEY'RE SO FAST.

>> Huell: I HAVE TWO IN MY YARD, BUTñr YOU KNOW WHAT, JUST THOSE TWO, I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING EVERY DAY.

>> THEY'RE SO CUTE.

>> Huell: YOU'VE GOT 40.

>> I KNOW, I KNOW.

>> WHAT HAPPENS, IF YOU PUT OUT ONE OR TWO FEEDERS, AND THEY DEFEND THOSE FEEDERS.

BUT IF YOU SATURATE THE AREA WITH ENOUGH FOOD, IT BECOMES IMPOSSIBLE FOR ONE BIRD TO DEFEND THE AREA.

>> I THINK THERE IS ANOTHER REASON, AND IT IS MORE ABOUT HUMAN BEHAVIOR.

WHEN PEOPLE HAVE ONE FEEDER, THEY TEND TO LET IT RUN DRY.

IF YOU WANT TO A RESTAURANT AND THEY SAID, WE'RE OUT OF FOOD, YOU WOULD NOT GO BACK THERE VERY OFTEN.

I THINK THE BIRDS DO THAT TOO.

YOU'VE ALWAYS OT FOOD WHEN YOU'VE YOU'VE GOT MORE THAN ONE FEEDER.

EVERY MORNING I WAKE UP, A SCRATCH MY HEAD, WE GO THROUGH ABOUT 25 POUNDS OF SUGAR A MONTH.

>> Huell: SO YOU'RE GIVING THEM SUGARED WATER?

>> YES.

>> Huell: I DON'T WANT TO BURST THEIR BUBBLE.

I THINK YOU TOLD ME EARLIER THAT MAYBE THAT WASN'T SO UNUSUAL?

>> WELL THIS IS--DEDICATED PAIR OF HUMMING BIRD FEEDERS.

BUT IF YOU PUT THIS MANY FEEDERS AND YOU'VE GOT WELL PLANTED YARDS, THIS IS WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT.

AND THERE IS HUNDREDS OR DOZENS OF SIMILAR YARDS IN THE LOS ANGELES REGION, AND PROBABLY TENS OF THOUSANDS AROUND THE COUNTRY.

[BUZZING] .

>> Huell: YOU CAN ACTUALLY HEAR THEIR WINGS?

>> OH YES, THAT HENCE THE HUMMING.

THE HUMMING OR BUZZING SOUND OR THE MALES LIKE THE ALAN'S HAVE SPECIALIZED FEATHER THAT HAVE ALMOST A CRICKET SOUND LIKE SOUND.

>> Huell: SO THAT'S HOW THEY GOT THEIR NAME?

>> E MAKE A HUMMING SOUND.

>> Huell: BECAUSE THEY'RE MOVING SO FAST?

>> YES, A LOT LIKE INSECT.

>> Huell: DIDN'T YOU TELL ME THE MALE SPECIFICALLY USE THAT SOUND?

>>LE--THE MALES WILL IN KAURT SHIP KAURT--COURT SHIP OR FIGHTING SOUND.

THEIR WINGS MAKE A DISTINCTIVE SOUND.

>> Huell: NOW WHY AREN'T THOUGH GOING FOR THE ROSES?

>> ROSES DON'T HAVE GOOD NECTARS.

THEY ARE SHOWY BUT NOT NECTAR?

>> Huell: WHAT DO THEY LIKE?

>> THE NATURAL FLOWERS OR COMMONLY PLANTED ONE.

SAGES, FUSCIAS, AND EVEN EUCALYPTUS.

>> Huell: HOW CAN EVERYBODY WATCHING, WE ALL LOVE HUMMING, CAN ANYONE ANYWHERE IN THE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, BECAUSE THE TWO THAT I HAVE ARE IN PALM SPRINGS?

>> CAN ANYONE WATCHING ANYWHERE IN OUR VIEWING AREA, PUT OUT A HUMMING BIRD FEEDER AND EXPECT TO ENJOY ON A SMALLER VERSION, WHAT MR. STONE AND HIS WIFE ARE ENJOYING IN THEIR BACK YARD?

>> I THINK IN THIS REGION, ANYWHERE ANYTIME OF YEAR, THEY NEED TO DO IT RESPONSIBLE, FEEDERS THAT ARE SITTING FOR A LONG TIME, THEY CAN GET MOLD AND SO ON.

THEY NEED TO MIX THE SUGAR WATER--.

>> Huell: WHERE DO PEOPLE FIND OUT ABOUT THIS STUFF?

DO YOU HAVE A BOOK FOR SALE?

>> YOU'RE THE ONE THAT SHOULD HAVE THE BOOK FOR SALE.

>> THERE ARE MANY BOOKS FOR SALE.

>> Huell: YOU CAN GO TO PET STORES.

>> THERE IS A WHOLE HUMMING BIRD DISCUSSION ON THE INTERNET CALLED "HUM NET".

>> Huell: YOU'RE KIDDING?

>> I'M NOT KIDDING OUGHT ALL.

>> Huell: WHAT A WONDERFUL THING TO CELEBRATE NATURE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY THAN TO WELCOME THESE LITTLE HUMMING BIRDS TO OUR BACK YARDS ALL OVER SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

>> IT'S FASCINATING.

>> Huell: THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

YOU DIDN'T KNOW WE WERE GOING TO BRING A HUMMING BIRD EXPERT.

>> I'M GLAD YOU DID.

>> Huell: THAT'S BEEN OUR VISITEç TO THE STONE'S BACK YARD.

WE STARTED AT THE NATURAL MUSEUM, THIS PROGRAM HAS BEEN ENTITLED ALL YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT HUMMING BIRD.

THESE WONDERFUL LITTLE BIRDS THAT VISIT US DAILY HERE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.
