It's time to try a post. I shot this one in Ohio this past summer. It was intended to be one hummer at the feeder, but the second one decided to drop in at the last second.

I hope that your Hummers are more 'sharing' than those in Smith River, CA! Our feeder, like yours, has four feeding stations. But most of the time only one bird feeds (she/he) chases the others that try to land away. :-(

There's usually more fighting than sharing.

Thanks. There were 3 or 4 of them that day. Just about every time one would get a drink another would chase him away and take over.

Welcome to the forum! I'm always amazed at how much energy hummingbirds expend in defense of their feeders :)

If you haven't had a chance to check out the specialty forums on UHH, on the home page scroll down and view the "all sections" area.
