I saw a hummingbird , a female , I think , so I sat on the front porch to watch her and her mate take turns running patrol and eating . When I went to leave there were 4 birds . I think they were fighting over the feeders . That or it was two parents with babies about to leave the nest .
What is the reason the hummingbirds were running patrol ?
- They wanted to guard eggs in a nest .
 - They were looking for honey
 - They wanted nectar if it passed
 - None of the above choices .
