Turf war at the hummingbird feeder

Instead of the Crips and the Bloods, or the Capulets and the Montagues, we've got the Greenies and the Brownies fighting it out here. And they've got the aerial aspect to their battling those other guys don't.

It's like Spitfires and Messerschmitts dogfighting it out in the skies over Europe ... but that comparison would do our hummingbirds a grave injustice. They can zoom in at full throttle and change direction on a dime. They are far more manoeuvrable than any fighter plane.

I guess our recipe for feeder fodder is right on the money.
