August is Hummingbird Month at Woodlands Nature Station inside Land Between the Lakes.

August brings over 250 ruby-throated hummingbirds a day to the Woodlands Nature Station, and the Friends of Land Between the Lakes invite you to come witness this natural spectacle for yourself during Hummingbird Month.

Come by any day in August and watch these busy birds have a feeding frenzy in our backyard gardens. Also, enjoy artwork by local artists and photographers, check out informative hummingbird displays and programming, take part in our photo contest, or attend our 24th Annual Hummingbird Festival.
