This was a spring of plenty when it came to Ruby-crowned Kinglets. Most sites I visited there were several around and calling to let you know they were there.
There are several species of Ruby-tailed wasps in the UK, and ignita (above) is the one most frequently seen. The head and thorax are a dazzling greenish-blue, and the abdomen is a firey red. In bright sunlight the vivid metallic colours of their bodies appear very jewel-like.
Ruby-tailed wasps lay their eggs in the nests of other solitary bees and wasps. When they find a possible nest to lay their eggs they checkout the entrance to make sure no one is home. If they are unlucky and the owner is home they are well equipped to defend themselves with tough body cuticle to protect them from stings. Also the underside of their abdomen is concave which enables them to curl up into a ball.
If no one is home, they check to see the nest is well stocked with food, and then they reverse in and lay their eggs. When the eggs hatch, the emerging larvae eat the host bee or wasp larvae. For this reason they are sometimes called 'Cuckoo Wasps'. They remain in the nest until they are fully developed and then emerge the following spring as adult wasps.
O fofinho aí chegou hoje! Não é um amor? :)
A foto na verdade é pras meninas que não sabiam se pediam ou não ele por causa do bichinho. Pede logo!
Sim, o esmalte Ruby Deer da direita é um vermelhão. É sim, mas é um vermelhão lindo, com alguma coisa de cereja, super Natal, roupa de papai noel. Transparente (jelly?), mas com três camadas deixa de ser. Essa pelo menos foi a impressão no disquinho transparente.
Já o da esquerda, o Sugar Plum precisava de zoom nos brilhinhos: à esquerda com flash, direita com a iluminação tosca da minha sala (agora viu porque eu pinto mal as unhas??). Então, ele é um ameixa muito bonito, que fica lindo com esses microbrilhinhos multicoloridos :)
Ah claro, ele vem em uma caixinha transparente bonitinha, mas ele está toda melada de óleo para cutículas por fora :( e foi muita, mas muita sorte não melecar o fofo do Ruby, porque boa parte dos que vieram com esses eu tive que limpar com lenço de papel :| Pedi uma droga de um kit com óleo (tá, o kit era legal), mas mandaram 2 esmalte e um óleo no meio, sem proteção dentro, e os esmaltes acabaram quebrando o óleo, que por sua vez melecou tudo em volta :( Daí fiquei eu triste e desconsolada, sem óleo, sem caixinhas e com uma baita sujeira pra limpar.
Enfim, espero que as fotos tenham ajudado :)
Obs.: mas se você não usa vermelho, então melhor nem pedir o kit, óbvio, né? :D
Obs.2: Eu jurava que a minha mãe ia passar aqui, achar lindo o Sugar Plum e levar para passar. Dito e feito :D

This is a bird I've been trying to photograph for a long time. They are so tiny and never still - I've seen them often enough but this is my first acceptable image. There were two of them flitting about this tree non-stop, feeding on tiny insects of some kind. It was raining, the light was flat and low, and the branches made for a focusing nightmare. I stood and tried for the entire ten minutes or so that they were there and this is the only usable frame I got.
His ruby crown is usually not visible and only seen when he gets excited enough to flare his head feathers. I got one blurry image where you can just make out a hint of red on his head.
Winter residents in the Oklahoma Cross Timbers. Stay fairly low to the ground providing some close shots. Problem is they are never still. Can be frustrating to photo. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
No dia das mães acordei tarde e eu ainda tinha q fazer meus assado, tomar banho, secar o cabelinho novo!, pintar as unhas e correr pra mamis!!!
ENtão pintei super rapidinho!!!! dá pra ver q o anelar e o mindinho estão manchadinhos :( mas td bem, pq o Ruby é lindo! e nem dá pra ver direito...não ao vivo!
Mas posso falar? e acho q ainda vou ouvir...não gostei do pincel! prontofalei!!! não sei se foi pq pintei mto rapido, achei o esmalte meio grosso, e ele é achatadinho mas super retão!!! não sei como são os da OPI, mas a experiencia q tenho com pinceis achatadinhos é só os da Sally Hansen, aquele rosa lindo da minha galeria, até tirei foto mas minhas fotos passam de 200 e vão ficando 'invisiveis' na galeria, conforme vou acrescentando vai sumindo!!!
E aí q o pincel do InstaDri da SH é achatinho, as pontas são arredondadas e um pouco mais fico, mais macio...não sei se consegui explicar, mas o da Hits é tão grandão, grosseiro, q é quase inpossivel pintar as unhas sem sujar td em volta...entederão?! ;)
Bom de qq forma a cor é linda! passei uma unica camada! e como sempre usei o roxinho da Ideal!

She was a very "active" little kitten, I am surprised I could even capture this (!) What is most interesting about this photo is she has no freckles on her nose...later in life she would acquire freckles on her nose (something I never knew could happen!).
Here she is at 13 years old with all her freckles!

Ruby-tailed Wasp or cuckoo wasp waiting for the opportunity to predate a solitary bee nest by sitting adjacent to hole the bee is using.
My first Ruby Meadowhawk of the year! This little lady let me get very close to her and she was posing nicely! They like hanging out on the daylily stems!
Looking toward Ruby's on the pier at Huntington Beach. A seagull flew through the frame at the right moment :)

Today I met Ruby, the seven-year-old Australian Shepherd, and her mom, Rhonda. Ruby has the softest fur and just wanted me to love her, not photograph her.
Rhonda shared the story of how Ruby came into her life. She had a different dog, who had passed away and she was still heartbroken when she saw Ruby as a puppy. Ruby's eyes weren't even open yet but Rhonda knew that this was the dog for her. She discovered that Ruby was born on the exact date and time that her other dog had died. It was as if her dear departed dog had picked out Ruby for her. I am so glad they found each other because they belong together.

There was well over a dozen Ruby-crowned Kinglets singing their heads off and likely twice that amount in Fishtrap Creek Park.
Most of the kinglet photos I post have the brilliant crest showing, but most of the frames I shoot don't. More often than not the crest will not be visible. There is just a hint of the ruby red on this bird's head. The crest is only visible when the bird is excited. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
Ruby is 16 years old, she belongs to a friend. I think she is a Cairn Terrier.
