I visited 2 different friends in the past 2 days and observed a single young
female RT Hummer at both homes. The Hummer in Alpharetta has been living on
a raised deck nonstop for the past week - roosting in a potted Japanese
Maple and only leaving the tree to dine at the feeder. She is extremely
aggressive/territorial of the feeder with any birds that come in too close.
The Hummer in Sandy Springs is doing the same thing - traveling only between
a small potted tree and the feeder; a distance of only 5'. Am sure they'll
be leaving soon, but I've been telling everyone to keep their feeders fresh
& full through Winter.
