One in photo guards Hamelia bush below and now 4 young male rubythroats here. I finally was able to go out after it quit raining at 9 a.m. to see their behavior. All seem to have picked a spot after nectaring from Hamelias in flowerbeds, purple gurantica, potted Hybrid guranticas we have. They even go to 2 hanging fuschia color bougainvilleas, and 1 orange Tequila sunrise bougainvillea basket. They chase if one gets near their guarded Hamelia bush.
Put new sugar water in 5 feeders that got rain in them overnight. They're Still not going to feeders and one is real friendly when I go out on patio.
