Best Answer

Male hummingbirds have a territory and feeders within that territory belong to that male. Males will determine who gets to use the feeder. The male will "attack" any others by simply fly toward them and chasing them away and not let them return.

Does a hummingbird ever land?

Yes, hummingbirds land when they perch. After a meal of nectar, a hummingbird will perch. Hummingbirds store their food in a pouch at the base of their throat. This pouch is called a crop. While they are perching this food is moving from the crop to the stomach for digestion. It only takes hummingbirds about 10 minutes to digest their food. Hummingbirds do not walk or hop like other birds though.
