Subject: [CT Birds] 3 hummingbirds
1 male arrived on April 19th, 6 days earlier than ever. A second arrived
yesterday and they've been fighting constantly. We put up 2 additional
feeders, but only the female that arrived today is smart enough to just go
to the feeder in the front rather than fight over the one in the back.

Other birds of note are blue-gray gnatcatcher and a white-throated
sparrow. White-breasted nuthatches, chickadees and tufted titmice appear
to be nesting and the bluebirds are likely on eggs as they've had a nest
for some time now.
