Broad-billed (male)Defending “his” feeder.What a difference in the colors when the light doesn’t hit the throat.She is telling him that this is her feeder.
These Hummers have been at my feeders for a couple of weeks. I have also seen a male black-chinned, but I don’t have a photo. They are so much fun to watch.
Be on the lookout for these tiny, beautiful birds and help them get back to their wintering grounds when fall migration begins. Mix one cup of white sugar and 4 cups of water.
Happy Birding
