Tennessee Warbler, Nectar Thief

BirdNote Daily

Tennessee Warblers love drinking nectar, but they do it without helping to pollinate flowers. By tapping a hole into the base of a flower, these warblers enjoy an easy meal while bypassing the flower’s pollen. But they give back to their ecosystems in other ways – such as eating countless insects!

Tom and Annalee Luhman celebrate BirdNote with today's show. They believe BirdNote stories are a magical doorway to nature and all of its wonders.
