In watching hummingbirds they just appear and you are frozen watching them! If you are lucky you will catch a chase which leads high in the sky and then darting through the trees...it never lasts long as I am sure it takes too much energy to fight that long then the winner comes back to the area and returns dining. This is repeated over and over as the young ones are learning how to battle and claim nectar areas and of course the dominant male has to continue to show this area belongs to him. It makes for captivating viewing.

“She's the kind of nectar that can't be messed with. She's tender, caring, and super strong. A wildflower that survives the frost and the storm. She's accountable for herself and slow to anger. With legendary stamina, she can handle a lot but knows her limits. A gentle force that can't be pushed over, she's content with who she is and doesn't waste time worrying about how others shine. There's no sweating the small stuff. She holds her own. She's an original earth mama. Her energy is grounded and her presence soothing. She inspires all to act, not just talk. She's quality over quantity kind of gal. Stable and dependable, she won't settle for anything less than what she loves. Her goddess power is showing others their strength and resilience. This queen makes you feel safe. Her magic will ground you and she'll never ever doubt your dreams.”
