This is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 2009 by Fred Bassett
to promote the conservation of hummingbirds through research and education.
They are a sister organization of the Hummer/Bird Study Group (HBSG).

These groups monitor population levels and the general condition of migrant birds,
as well as gaining important insights into the effects of weather on bird migration
