2 photographs of an interaction between two hummingbirds. In the top photo, a chestnut-breasted coronet is chasing with feet out the other hummingbird, a large-eyed & seemingly exasperated one with a faint pink flash at its chin. In the second photo, both birds are sharing the branch but only because the Fawn-breasted Brilliant (pink chin) is refusing to even acknowledge the pesky presence of the Chestnut-breasted Coronet who is turned to the brilliant with an evil glitter in its eye.

This is probably more hummingbirds than anyone wanted to see on one day so here is my last picture posting for the evening

Chestnut-breasted Coronets were the constant hecklers & chasers of the other hummingbirds, esp. near feeders, and this Fawn-breasted Brilliant finally had enough & decided to refuse to be moved
