One male and 2-4 females very aggressively chasing each other away from the feeder. All individually feeding on fuscia plant, but none sitt with each other at a feeder. Have resident chickadees frequently visiting the sugar water also, and they will tolerate the hummers, but the hummers will not often feed next to the chickadees. They will sit on the opposite side, thought.
Have not yet seen the younger ones sitting together at the feeder. Last year had 4 sitting together and two more buzzing around the area. A little too soon - but watching for them. Then, unfortunately they leave. Not looking forward to that!
