I put up a humming bird feeder and I think I have an aggressive hummingbird that runs the others off?

julliana asked:
This hummingbird has a black head and a white stripe around his throat. I call him Bully because when the other hummers come to the feeder he literally flies into them and bonks them. He ran off this really pretty hummer with a red throat that I liked alot too. He seems to think this is HIS feeder. Is this normal behavior? I would like to see the other birds too. Is “Bully” just a psycho hummingbird or are they naturally territorial?

Should I hang other feeders? Would that help?

Definitely hang additional feeders - hummingbirds can be aggressive and territorial. My friend usually has three or four, because around one of them there’s one hummingbird who will “dive bomb” any others that come around.
