SEPTEMBER 29

Through My Kitchen Window

Master of his Domain

This little Hummingbird has camped out on my back porch for the past 10 days.
He is a selfish bully, who is guarding both feeders round the clock.
Other hummers try to come for a drink, but Bully Bird chases them away.
Bully's favorite perch is on the shoulder of my Halloween skeleton.
He is no bigger than my Thumb.

He's a cute little hummer. I've seen them go at it. They can be pretty aggressive. Super capture of the king of the feeders. V.

That is such a funny story. For one so tiny he is certainly feisty! Maybe he thinks that the skeleton will protect him! V
