Ha ha.....I've got the hummingbird drink off......ya know, kinda like the 4th of July hot dog

eating contest……I just wish I could show ya. Don’t know how to do that, but I just laughed out loud watching them. Two feeders, and two hummers were on each feeder and one was drinking and on the other feeder another one was drinking, and they looked like it was kindof a contest. One would drink, and then the other one would drink….ha ha a drink off.

I've had as many as a dozen at two feeders at a time on my porch. The way they went at each other was crazy. I saw one off the feeder spear another one in the back with its beak while it was drinking. They could get savage, even though there was enough feed for all of them.
