Hummingbird Migration Maps
We here at the World of Hummingbirds .com worked with Google Earth and Google Maps to create a mapping system of the migration of hummingbirds around the world. This will allow everyone to see when hummingbirds are migration and where and can make their plans accordingly.
The best way to view these maps is by using Google Earth. This is a free download and a terrific tool for just about any mapping application you can think of. If you have a computer that does not run Google Earth, not a problem, you can also utilize Google Maps.
