It's always that case come August and September that we start seeing hummingbirds chasing one another off from the feeder. So far we've only seen two but we've seen up to four at once. Naturally they could all perch and feed at the same time but they'd rather fight.



Perhaps because of the extra energy being spent or because they're bulking up to migrate, they start paying more attention to all the balcony plants, attempting to drink from them. I was particularly amused by these shots of one hummingbird with a closing giant hibiscus bloom. The blooms are already about 5-6 inches across and big enough to close the hummingbird up inside it.

Lovely photos. Humming birds are such delightful little creatures.
