Rhodes Bayou will be humming on Sept. 13 as the site of the first-ever Hummingbird Happy Hour hosted by the Pascagoula River Audubon Center.

As part of the weekend Hummingbird Festival, this event takes beer-on-the-bayou to the next level with a new signature cocktail, “Hummingbird nectar,” along with craft beer, wine, snacks, and an opportunity to meet the hummingbird banders. Patrons will also have an opportunity to purchase hummingbird-themed stemless wine glasses and other festival merchandise.
