My Entry For the #SMap Show Me A Photo Contest
Round #77
After grounding out they both try and get some altitude to go with all that attitude..
One makes it to the top of the feeder and pulls a king of the mountain move as the other swoops up and tries to land.
The bird on the roof of the feeder drops down on the swooping bird and clocks it one then flits over to get it's reward.
My little Ruby-throated Hummingbird now has a name.
