Hummingbird

This little thing was perched on a feeder hanger on our deck; it was being very protective of his feeder bottle. There is no way that this tiny bird could drink two cups of sugar water but he was not going to share any of it with any other hummers.

Whenever another hummer would swoop down to eat they were chased off by this tiny bully. When this guy would fly off to chase another bird away, someone else would quick fly in and get some food; now he had someone else to chase after as he returned to his perch. No wonder he looks so crabby.

Who knew being stingy and greedy was so much work and so exhausting
