Hummingbird wars on the porch
They really aren't big on sharing that feeder.

1. The males are very territorial. I have two males at mine that spend all day
chasing each other away while the one female drinks as much as she wants. She will sit on a nearby tree branch and wait for the males to fly off, being macho, leaving the feeder all to her.

They are sure fun to watch and I love to look at her when she is just sitting still on the branch.
