The hummingbird reminds us that small does not mean insignificant. Everything has a purpose. Every part of creation reflects something of the One who made it.

Nearly 3 BILLION birds have disappeared from North America in the last 50 years. Why? Pesticides don’t just eliminate what some deem as “pests.” They eliminate the insects birds rely on to survive. Birds like the Barn Swallow and Eastern Bluebird depend almost entirely on insects during breeding season. Species like the American Robin, Chickadee, and Blue Jay rely on healthy, chemical-free soil to find food. If there are no insects feeding on those plants…baby birds go hungry
