Why Do HUMMINGBIRDS FIGHT Over Feeders?

Hummingbirds are constantly fighting each other. Hummingbirds fight over feeders; hummingbirds fight over flowers; and hummingbirds fight over their whole territory. Hummingbirds are very territorial because their very lives depend on them guarding their food source.

A hummingbird has to eat its whole body weight every couple of days, so once a bird has found something he really likes he is going to protect that food.

Even though you see many birds on my balcony, the fighting over the hummingbird feeders goes on constantly. If you are trying to deal with territorial hummingbirds at your own feeders, try creating more territories so the bully birds can’t protect all of them.
Hummingbirds are the same all over the Americas. Everywhere you go to find them, you will see them fighting over their territory.
