Description
SITTING GUARD IN THE CHERRY BLOSSOMS by Lynn Bauer - A fiesty hummingbird sits guard in the branch of a cherry tree. Pretty pink blossoms hide him from the others as he sits watch over the garden. Hummingbird are extremely territorial, and do not share their space well. It takes a lot of fuel to keep them going, so when they find a food source, they guard it ferociously and will attach other's who invade their space. They are able to do this when there are not a large number of hummingbirds around. But, when the spring and fall migrations takes place, it is not to easy for them to keep others at bay!
This is a male Anna's hummingbird found in a garden in Southern California.
