Same here. I have three, but they will only feed one at a time.

Oh, ours fight too!! We have approx 24 birds right now. Sometime while fighting they have slammed into our glass doors and really stun themselves.
We hang 4 feeders to try and keep them pacified.

here's one that "beaned" himself on the glass door. He lay in the towel we put him in for almost 45 minutes...we were starting to think he wasn't going to make it...them out he came. :D

The hummingbirds are so cute. Although I have a major phobia about anything with feathers I do love hummingbirds.
The turkeys........well, Thanksgiving is coming soon.




Just kidding! Quit kicking me!!!! LOL

I don't feed the hummingbirds but I do feed the other birds, last winter they ate 150# of bird seed. I love to watch from the windows and see what type of birds come to my yard, and of course a squirrel or two.
