The idle musings of a former military man, former computer geek, medically retired pastor and now full-time writer.

Hummingbirds will fight, or at least have tiffs, over who gets a spot at the feeder. There are definitely more aggressive alphas. I bought 3 feeders one year to spread them out and one bird would fly from feeder to feeder trying to chase others away.
