A hummingbird quivers in a conservationist’s hand after banding, unaware yet that the wing restraint ring has been removed and it is free. Their heart and muscles contract and release so fast that they feel almost electric in your palm. Banding helps track their long migration routes, lifespans and how often they return to the same gardens and is used to help protect vital corridors.
