Rufous Hummingbird Bracelet

A Bracelet with a Story to Tell™: Rufous Hummingbird Bracelet Inspiration: Did you know we have hummingbirds in Alaska?  We do!  The Rufous Hummingbird is one of two hummingbird species that migrate here.  Anna’s Hummingbird is the other.   The little birds have a large migratory area.  They travel over 4,000 miles from Alaska in the summer to over winter in Mexico. They are extremely territorial, even attacking hummingbirds larger than themselves. These little birds are just a hair over 3” long.  That’s a little bird who has a huge journey ahead of them each year. If you are a bird watcher, you probably already know that hummingbirds will beat their wings at a rapid rate to hover in place.  Rufous hummingbirds have been recorded at up to 62 wingbeats per minute.  Wow!   The oldest recorded Rufous Hummingbird was an astonishing eight years and eleven months old! Our Rufous Hummingbird Bracelet is based around the Rufous' shimmering brown wings and its gorgeous ruby throat. The wings are represented by woodlace stone beads on either side of red brecciated jasper barbell gemstones. This bracelet can be crafted with either black. brown or grey bolo leather. This is a great bracelet with a fabulous color combination and a bit of whimsy. Perfect for anytime wear. Tell us about your local hummingbirds. This is a stretch bracelet to fit most wrists.  Our Premier Hand-Crafted Bracelets Always best quality natural materials and craftsmanship Always a Lifetime Guarantee Always designed and crafted in the United States of America Always made by residents of the Great State of Alaska Custom designs are always available - just message or call us!
