Western Hummingbird Information Network

Western Hummingbird Partnership (WHP)

The Western Hummingbird Partnership (WHP) is a developing network of partners collaborating to build an effective and sustainable hummingbird conservation program through science-based monitoring, research, habitat restoration/enhancement, and education/outreach efforts.  WHP goals are to support projects, develop programs, and build partnerships that investigate what hummingbirds need to survive, successfully reproduce, and maintain thriving populations; and then to inform land managers, policy makers, and the public so habitats can be managed in ways that help hummingbirds and their communities thrive. In addition to directly influencing the conservation of hummingbirds and their habitats, the WHP can also contribute to an agency’s ability to meet their greater goals/priorities for conservation of ecosystems in general.

The mission of the WHP is to work together to maintain thriving hummingbird populations and their habitats for present and future generations.

 

WHP Vision

The vision of the WHP is a broad network of partners collaborating to:

• develop an efficient and effective conservation program that investigates what hummingbirds need to survive, successfully reproduce and sustain viable populations through science based monitoring, research, habitat restoration/enhancement, and education/outreach projects; and
• inform land managers, policy makers, and the public so habitats can be managed in ways that help hummingbirds and their communities thrive.
