I was interested more in the butterflies than the hummers. Lots of information included about the uses of the plants for the butterflies and where to place them. Good information also about their life cycles and how to keep them happy in all stages. There are several pages of pictures only that include their scientific and common names, range, description, habitat, habits, larval host and larvae.
The information for the hummers was pretty much the same.
How to Attract Hummingbirds & Butterflies by Matthew Tekulsky (Ortho Books 1991) (635+/-). This is a standard Ortho “How To” book. My rating: 7/10, finished 9/2010.
