Hummingbird, Ruby-throatedOperation RubyThroatThe Web's most comprehensive hummingbird site home: www.rubythroat.org Back to Cross-disciplinary Activities Sign Our Guestbook Table of Contents HUMMINGBIRD GEOGRAPHY ACTIVITIES For many students, geography is a class in memorization: all the state capitols, the major rivers of the world, the main export of each of the countries of Africa. Although such facts are important for students to know, activity-based learning such as those in Operation RubyThroat may be more effective in teaching, learning, and retention than mere memorization. The Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) is an ideal topic for discussion in geography because it breeds, migrates through, or spends the winter in all the countries of North and Central America. While learning about the natural history of this diminutive bird, students can also learn a great deal about geography. We hope you'll want to share your original hummingbird geography work through publication on Operation RubyThroat . If so, contact
