Birders:( Ruby Throated Hummingbirds Chasing Birds ::) Yesterday in East Hamblen County North East of Morristown,On July 16, 2007 in our both front and back yards I witness 2 Ruby Throated Hummingbirds chasing small birds and sometimes each other I am guessing the hummingbirds are just been playful or keeping the yard all to them selves and I f just having fun watching them chasing small birds and I am still hearing and seeing the Summer Tanager hanging around eating berries in the tree where the owl nesting box and I put a red bicycle reflector on the bottom of the owl nesting box just in case an owl or another bird or birds start nesting in so I can start watching and keeping up with them.
