Episode description
A description of how ornithologists recently discovered the location of non-breeding Giant Hummingbirds, a long-time mystery dating back to Charles Darwin's discovery tour of Latin America. Darwin had a hunch, but the improbability and the relative inaccessibility of the region at the time made it impossible to verify. Bird of the episode: Phainopepla. Birding hotspot: Bill Williams/Lake Havasu Important Bird Area in western Arizona. Friend of Wildlife: Friends of Saguaro National Park.
