Overview
Grand Teton National Park delivers what few places in North America can: world-class hummingbird birding against one of the planet's most dramatic landscapes. The Calliope Hummingbird — the smallest bird in North America — is a documented breeding species in the park, hovering near scarlet gilia and willow shrubs along the Snake River and in the wildflower meadows of Jackson Hole. Oxbow Bend, widely considered the premier birding spot in the Tetons, has recorded both Rufous and Calliope Hummingbirds alongside Trumpeter Swans, Osprey, and Bald Eagles. Audubon specifically highlights Grand Teton as a Calliope Hummingbird park. The juxtaposition of these tiny, jewel-bright birds against the massive, snow-tipped Teton skyline creates photography opportunities that are simply unmatched.
