I made a slow motion video of a hummingbird fight. It happens so fast you don't realize what is happening. The music just happened to sync up with the fight.

Awesome video. I had a male ram a young bird so hard that the little thing hit the ground and expired. They play for keeps.

Beautiful sketch! Is this graphite?

Love it, and love your subject matter. In my experience, hummers are very territorial and warlike in defense of it!

Thank you. No. 2 pencil on a bit of paper borrowed from the printer.

They are very territorial! Fun to watch them “fight”.

It can get brutal. I've seen many serious injuries with battle scars and have had at least one death from a male ramming into a young bird.
