Although its not very clear I had to share with all at AW this picture of a male hummer fighting with a honey bee. I couldn't beleive what I was seeing. He would go to the feeder and bite at the honey bees and pull them off the feeder. In the first thumbnail you can see him with his mouth open and in the zoomed in version you see he has ahold of the wing of the bee pulling it off the feeder. He was very pertective of that feeder and did not want to share with anyone. He was one brave little bird I wouldn't want to take on a bee like that.

That is funny. I hope he did not get hurt by the bee.
