THANKS FOR THE JUICE - A female Ruby-throated Hummingbird at the feeder. Hummingbirds are very territorial and will protect a feeder and/or flower bed. A typical individual visits the feeder about once every thirty minutes, and in between will be catching insects (which can constitute up to 60 percent of their diet). We have multiple feeders on both sides of the house and on our roof to give everyone a feeder to protect.

Nice photo. I'll have to put out more feeders.
