A Ruby-throated Hummingbird

The humming birds enjoy our new feeders and we see the birds throughout our day.

This one, reminds me of "Mumbles" in the movie 'Happy Feet'.

This image was taken in Central Massachusetts.

Really Glad to see these guys back in our yard!

I try to separate foreground/background, but this is the way it really looks most of the time.

(Archilochus Colubris) The wing beat rate of Hummingbirds varies by species, with the common Ruby-Throated Hummingbird averaging a wing beat of about 53 per second, seen by the human eye as a blur.

we have four hummingbird feeders outside of work, so I tried to snap some photos of them.

A male Ruby Throated Hummingbird sits on a tree limb just off my back porch. From this spot he had a commanding view of the Hummingbird feeder hanging on my back porch. When any other hummingbird would show up at the feeder he would swoop down and attempt to scare them away from the feeder which he felt belonged to him alone.

immature male ruby-throat hummingbird. This little guy is just started showing a few of his ruby colors on his throat.

Usually we only get juveniles at our feeder. This guy (I think) was just sitting in a tree, taking a break.
