p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Bullying - apparently it happens also in the hummingbird world

This image is from a recent visit in Ecuador. I did not see how it started but the HB on the left just stepped on the foot of the other and one of the claw apparently got caught in the cracks of the branch. The other HB struggled to break loose and was visibly upset. At the end, it did manage. The nonchalant look of the "bully" tells the story...

Edit - the next frame which is almost indistinguishable than the original for a slightly sharper image ended up being posted here. I should have selected it better. Thank you!

Get off of me!
