First hummingbird sighted at the feeder this morning in Center Harbor, but there was a problem. A beautiful Baltimore Oriole was sitting on the feeder. The hummingbird was using typical hummingbird intimidation tactics, buzzing all around but the Oriole was ignoring him, with amusement. The Oriole seemed to be getting some nectar but finally flew away. The hummingbird came back a minute later and was finally able to settle on the feeder.
