FLYING JEWEL
Female Broad-tailed Hummingbird

BATTLE ON THE PATIO
Male broadtails and Rufous took their fight for feeder supremacy to the air.

DIFFERENT HUMMERS
Same goal.
Victory over the red liquid.

So they:
Dive bomb each other.
Wings beating furiously.
Chasing from tree to tree.
Blurs in the sunshine.

AND THE FEMALES?
Perching. Ready. Watching
For that opportunity to buzz into an empty feeder.
