Butterfly and Hummingbird Day
- for honoring and celebrating the beautiful and unique bird called the hummingbird and admiring the beautiful and colorful butterflies fluttering around.
Read: Attracting Hummingbirds and Butterflies to Your Backyard-- In her newest book for Rodale, the irrepressible Sally Roth zeroes in on one of North America's best-loved backyard birds-the hummingbird-and on the beautiful, delicate insects that are all the rage among nature enthusiasts-butterflies.
Becoming a dual hummingbird/butterfly watcher couldn't be more natural for backyard gardeners and nature lovers because both of these types of winged creatures are attracted to beautiful nectar flowers. Sally Roth is a passionate gardener, and she shares all her best recommendations on the perfect flowers to plant to attract hummingbirds and butterflies.
