The Bad Asses of the Bird World by Marlton Mom, on Flickr
Oh look how Cute! Its a widdle Humming bird! Beware though... this jet fighter of the bird world is mean as hell and will take another Humming Bird OUT. These birds are vicious and territorial and I have witnessed many an aerial duel between hummers over feeders and turf.
This hummer is a female. I always get lucky and get females that hang around my yard. We are close to a busy road so I am guessing that our turf isn't quite as desirable when compared to the neighbors down the street. Their houses are more woodsy so they get more hummers. There is a ruby throated male that harasses my girl here. She just flies off and returns when the male has to defend another part of his turf farther away. That's my Girl!!!
