Sugar High

Following my previous post, I noticed this week that it is not only human nature to fight. I have a hummingbird feeder hanging in my yard. One hummingbird has decided that it is her own private restaurant.

She sits perched on a branch just above and to the side of the feeder and dive-bombs any other hummingbird who approaces.

Survival instinct? Maybe. But there is plenty for all to feed and no need to hoard or fight over the resources.

Kind of like humans?
