I drove down to Ruby Beach with @tomhill_photography recently. You’d think that drowning his phone in sea water would slow him down a bit, but no such luck… that f*ckface still managed to get a beautifully processed shot up a day ahead of me. What a dick ;-)… Anyhow, we were standing shoulder to should for this shot and it’s awesome to see how different a few inches makes to a composition.
One thing is certain, we both LOVED Ruby Beach. The light, the mist, the waves… all of it. This was actually a single exposure (rare for me, I know!) but I attribute that to the new Canon 5D MkIV that I picked up a while ago - There is definitely better dynamic range and cleaner iso on this camera. Loving it so far.
I was using my polarizer and a 3 stop ND filter to get my shutter open long enough to get this water motion captured. I was pretty excited when this popped up on the view finder. I might have squealed…

Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada, April 30, 2021.
A fast moving little bird, that doesn't sit still to get good photos but I got lucky.
Regulus calendula
The Ruby-crowned Kinglet is a tiny bird that lays a very large clutch of eggs—there can be up to 12 in a single nest. Although the eggs themselves weigh only about a fiftieth of an ounce, an entire clutch can weigh as much as the female herself.

Historia Natural
Alimentación
Visitan flores de una gran variedad de hierbas, arbustos, bejucos y árboles, sobre todo aquellos que producen gran cantidad de flores pequeñas y frecuentemente polinizadas por insectos, o flores aisladas (por ejemplo, flores de siete negritos (Lantana camara), Stachytarpheta, o a veces de guabas (Inga spp.)
En raras ocasiones poseen territorios de alimentación, pero pueden cazar en los territorios de especies más grandes.
Comportamiento
Generalmente se encuentra subordinada a la mayoría de las especies de colibríes locales.
Ciclo anual
Es una especie migratoria neártica.
Habitat y Distribución
Habitat
Viven en bosques secundarios, charrales, bordes de bosques deciduos, y en ocasiones en bosques de galería, plantaciones de café y zonas verdes en áreas rurales.
Distribución
Es una especie residente invernal de poco común a localmente común en las bajuras del Pacífico norte. Es de rara a ocasional a través del Valle Central y en las bajuras del Pacífico sur, y regular, aunque muy poco común, en la región de Los Chiles-Río Frío; en el resto del lado del Caribe solo ocurre como una divagante muy rara, sobre todo durante la migración otoñal de mediados de octubre a noviembre. En primavera emigra entre finales de marzo y mediados de abril.
Distribución fuera de Costa Rica
Se reproduce al este de Norteamérica, desde el sur de Canadá hasta Florida y Texas. Invierna desde el noroeste de México y el sur de Texas regularmente hasta Costa Rica y casualmente hasta el oeste de Panamá.

In our story Ruby is a sister of Morion and Opal, but she was born without any magic. As she could not stand living with her more talented sisters (especially with elder Morion), she left their house in dark, deep wood and started new life in the capitol. There - looking for a good job - she found an Assasins Guild. At the moment she is a boss one of a Guild assasins group and meets her sisters only if Guild does need a special powers.
We added a few details in Ruby's company face-up to make it more evening like. Now she is standing here in her new edwardian dress, and looks just awasome... But the pictures will have to wait till Sunday, when we will have a time to do it and when we will have the last dress of a new collection ready :3

This is perhaps my favourite ever photo of a Ruby Tailed Wasp.
This I believe is Chrysis ignita and is found across the UK from April through to September.
Being barely 10mm in length, they are difficult to spot. You can often see them running restlessly over walls and tree trunks, constantly using their downward-curving antennae to pick up the scent of their host insect. As a parasite they require another species for part of their life cycle, Chrysis ignita mainly parasitizes mason bees and other solitary bees.

This ruby-throated hummingbird is lining itself up to get nectar from this plant. I think the plant is a mealycup salvia, Salvia farinacea.

After the heavy rains yesterday, there might have been a fallout of migrating Ruby-crowned Kinglets at Fishtrap Creek Park this morning. I came across at least a dozen this morning, they have definitely been present in other areas recently but not in these numbers. They seemed to be singing up a storm every time I stopped to listen.

A pair of male ruby throated humming birds (archilochus colubris) were at the feeder today. They were going at each other like tiny WWI biplanes in a dog fight.

"El poblet de Rúbies aplegava 44 habitants en començar el segle [XX]; a l'any 1950 n'hi quedaven encara una vintena, però d'ençà del 1970 ja havia estat abandonat per la família Baulies, la darrera que hi restava. Totes les cases s'han anat esfondrant llevat de la casa Baulies que encara se serva dreta, no sabem per quant temps." Manuel Cortès i Ribelles El Montsec i muntanyes veïnes, Centre Excursionista de Lleida, 1984.
Shot with Nikon D810. This is a shot of Ruby Falls in Washington State, USA. A cascading waterfall flows over rugged rocks, surrounded by lush, green forest. Soft, misty water contrasts with the vibrant moss and foliage clinging to the rocky cliffs.
Good bye Ruby Tuesday...

I believe this to be a Moser demitasse cup with some hand enameling. The little seeds spilling out are petite rubies...
A female Ruby-Throated Hummingbird taking a break while drinking nectar from some flowers. It required considerable patience on my part under the hot summer sun to get a few good images of these hummers. Comments welcome.
