The female is still going to the Aspects Highview feeder in the Frontyard while the Juvi's are still in the back at least most of them. There was either another female or Juvi's trying to get to the Aspects feeder while the large female was feeding. She gave him/her the same position she has always done as if to say 'this is my feeder go find your own'. She sits there lowers her head & makes her head & beak go forward as if to say 'do u really want to mess with my beak because it is also my sword'? It is so amusing to watch her body language. Anyway, the other one still hovering decided not to mess around with her & flew away. I only put 1 down for adult male R.T. because I only saw 1 at a time. The other Male could still be here but didn't get to see them eating at the feeder at the same time. I did see & hear chasing in the backyard & at the same time saw another hummer feeding from our large Turk's Cap. But forgot to take my binocular's outside so not able to tell sex. One of the males did eat at the Aspects Feeder but did not see any hummers crossing each other's path at that feeder. Here is a picture of one of our Juvi's. Think we still have 6-7 total.
