While out photographing birds this morning, I observed on three occasions the odd situation where a male RT Hummingbird was doing a mating display to a Chestnut-sided Warbler. Probably the same RT each time. Can’t decide if it is funny or pitiful.
I guess they will display to anything that moves. Some years ago I had one display to me as I set out a feeder of fresh nectar. Reminds me of adolescent boys at a school dance.
