Hummingbird Sighting

Date: 09/08/2010

Number: 1

From 6:40 pm to 6:53 pm watched for hummers out my home garden patio. FOr most of the time I watched one hummer sit on my green arbor; it stretched, deffecated, looked around alert, fluffed feathers, flew off and fed on trumpet vine on neighboring arbor, then settled back on same perc. Another hummer perched on arboe within 6 inches of the first. The first fluffed & leaned over & pecked at 2nd without leaving its perch. Second humer flew off to check out 1 trumpet creeper blossom, then disappeared. The 1st hummer sat and watched to its right [east]. Flew off, returned to pearch in about 15 seconeds, sat and watched. Flew off east. I did not get a good enough look at either bird for a positive gender ID, both seemed to be females or juveniles, no red throat or necklace noticed.
