Thank you for the beautiful word this morning. Read it after church as I am always hurrying! I shouldn't hurry but I laze around too much with the coffee and little breakfast. By the way, I have seen the hummingbirds fight and they will take each other to the ground. Its amazing how they want the feeder to themselves.

Two cannot quarrel when one will not. Amen to that!

JC, I know what you mean. My hummingbird feeder is surrounded all spring with peaceful hummers. Then, here comes roufus. He guards every feeder within eyesight, and will dive bomb any bird that tries to feed. (And he is smaller than the other hummers.)

Here is a youtube clip of a little hummingbird landing on a lady's finger.
