Birds and Bees

I heard a buzzing at our hummingbird feeder and it wasn't the hummingbirds. A small swarm of honeybees had taken over the feeder.



Hummingbirds are territorial and weren't very receptive to sharing the feeder with the honeybees.



It was a battle of size vs. numbers. The larger hummingbirds were outnumbered by the honeybees.



In the end, the honeybees drained the sugar water from the feeder and returned it to the hummingbirds.
