The Hummingbirds are B52 Bombers!



I love to watch the hummingbirds of Blue Bird Farm (maybe we should rename the farm Hummingbird Farm in the summertime). They make these cute little squeeks and seem so delicate, that is until they spot each other going for the same humming bird feeder. Then right before my eyes I am back in WWII B-52 Bomber in the Twilight Zone. All of a sudden there are three hummingbirds, in mid air dive bombing each other at 100 MPH! They totally bump each other off and they don't give a darn weather I happen to be standing there or not. I end up diving onto the porch floor for cover! I never knew those little birds were so territorial!
