How to Stop Hummingbirds From Fighting

There's not much we can do to reduce conflict since hummingbird aficionados would prefer to watch them than rush them to safety.

Swanson suggested dispersing the food sources by cultivating flowers that hummingbirds prefer. "They adore penstemon flowers and bee balms," she added, mentioning a broad range of tubular flowers like fuchsias, salvias, and delphiniums.

Hummingbird-attracting potted flowers and plants should be grown.

If expanding the garden isn't an option, putting in more feeders—especially if they're positioned far enough apart and hidden from view of the others—usually helps stop hummingbirds from squabbling.

Consider grouping many feeders to deal with a bully that is persistent. It is said that one tough character is unable to repel every bird.  

If this still doesn't solve the problem, locate the hostile bird's perch and set up a feeder close by. It's hoped he'll ignore the others and concentrate on that one feeder. To get the bird to leave the area, you can also trim and remove his preferred perch.

Hummingbirds are incredibly fast and can be a bit aggressive at times, as they instinctively compete for food, territory, and other resources. However, we can contribute to their safety.
