Our hummers are still active, and today the one we have been watching  
most attentively has been spending most of her energy driving away  
others of her species, but also has been attacking a Monarch Butterfly  
which has been visiting favourite flowers.  I assume that the hummer  
does not intend to make a meal of the Monarch, but is just being  
territorial.
