Ruby-throated Hummingbird

The Ruby-throated Hummingbird is a small hummingbird with a slender, slightly down curved bill and fairly short wings that don't reach all the way to the tail when the bird is sitting.

Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are bright emerald or golden-green on the back and brown, with gray-white underparts. Males have a brilliant iridescent red throat that looks dark when it's not in good light.
