Arizona is a hummingbird hotspot. People travel far and wide to see these tiny lustrous birds.
There are at least a dozen species of hummingbirds in Arizona, the greatest variety of any state. You can see them year-round but April through October are the months with the greatest concentration, especially in southeastern Arizona.
But there’s no need to travel away from metro Phoenix to spot these colorful and high-energy birds.
