At first I thought I only had one adult male but after closer observation in appearance and demeaner, I realized that there were two adult males still using feeders. The Alpha male appears to be finishing up a heavy molt, hitting his 'favorite' feeder about every 15-20 minutes and putting on quite a bit of fat for his long journey south. Male #2 doesn't seem to have put on much additional weight yet. That may change as his nemesis heads south and he jockeys for the Alpha position.
