This year is the first time I have ever fed hummingbirds. The feeder is right outside the window and I have had a wonderful time watching them. It didn't take very long for one bird to claim this feeder as his own. The little guy sits on the canna plant and drives away all other birds including a finch who came to perch above the feeder. When I took the photos, I was focusing on the little bird and only realized what he was doing when I reviewed the photos.
