OldMaid 1,838 Posted July 31, 2013 My neighbors must have forgotten to fill their humming bird feeders... There are currently about 6 hummingbirds having an all out war, trying to get to mine. They're chasing each other around, pecking at one another. There's one who's kinda smaller than the rest... while the big ones are busy, he sneaks in and gets a drink. I never realized how territorial they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king george 0 Posted July 31, 2013 they are amazing. super mean though. they look at me through the window sometimes when the feeder is empty. they just stare at me with angry eyes, like they are daring me to come outside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shovelheadt 61 Posted July 31, 2013 Bright colors are the key with those littler fockers. Had one land on the bill of my orange Bengals cap for a second until he realized I wasn't a 6' flower. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phurfur 70 Posted July 31, 2013 They've been putting on a good show. I never knew they could be this entertaining. They are the only bird that can fly backward. They accomplish this by moving their wings in a figure eight motion. Â When I bring a refilled feeder outside they will fly right up to the feeder while I am carrying it.
