Ruby, my Red Point Siamese kitten, having a snooze on the air-conditioner.

In early Spring the low woodland floor along Paradise Pond is covered with wild and naturalized flowers - first with waves of blue Scilla (Scilla siberica) and now with Trout Lily (Erythronium), the wildly invasive Lesser Celandine (Ficaria verna) and this exquisite Red Barrenwort (Epimedium × rubrum ).

 

Red Barrenwort is a low, deciduous ground cover which, despite its delicate appearance, is drought tolerant, deer resistant and commands a strong presence in the forest understory. Its ruby-colored flowers bloom in the early Spring and its foliage adds beautiful color to the Autumn forest landscape.

 

Happy Monday, my friends! Have a wonderful week. :)

This is another in the series of Ruby-throated Hummingbirds from Strawberry Plains, when Allen (asparks306) and I 'worked' the garden area of the Davis house. I preferred the backward formation of the wings, along with part of its body pushed forward. The plant in the image is Coral Bean, a favorite of these birds. Everyone have a nice weekend!

Ruby Beach is off highway 101 on the Olympic Peninsula in Washington state. The beach, like many along the west coast, is noted for it's sea stacks -- geological landforms created by erosion. More info: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(geology)

I love my camera.

Camera in one hand, ball in the other.

I love my fur sister, too.

She doesn't fit in my hand. Or take pictures...

..but 'cute' seems to go a long way in this world, eh?

Ruby visited our office today.

Ruby Throated Hummingbird (m)

I was pleasantly surprised from photographing this image. I had no intentions on capturing a photograph around Red Rock Falls. Just an easy day hike to the falls and that's all I thought it was. But just a short time exploring the massive red rock formation I was surprised with this amazing set of waterfalls hitting the red rocks. So I slapped on the ND filter and CPL and got this amazing photograph to share.

These little birds have been teasing me for awhile and I finally got one (without the ruby crown) the other day. But today I was lucky that this one sat long enough so I could get a few photos. Phew!

Ruby-crowned Kinglet - Elizabeth Mills Riverfront Park

I've never seen blossom this rich a red in Spring before. Taken after rain with bright light breaking through cloud this was a very warm and vibrant sight. The leaf colours range from dark green to copper. Haven't found a name for it yet so I've decided to call it "Ruby" ... I think this might be cherry blossom ...

Backyard, Great Bend, Ks. Hummingbird migration has started.

Female Ruby Throated Hummingbird in our backyard.

I spotted several Ruby-crowned Kinglets and I suspect they were chasing a perspective mate.

Seen for sale in a local rock shop. Rubies are the dark red crystals in the softer green matrix of fuchsite, a chromium (Cr)-rich variety of the mineral muscovite, belonging to the mica group of phyllosilicate minerals. Chromium gives the ruby its deep red color. This sphere is about 8 inches in diameter.

I visited Ruby Beach several times before, but a few weeks ago I was finally rewarded by this kind of beautiful sky, for the first time.

Last week it seemed there were alot of these in the area...a fair sized crop but liked it regardless!

Photographed in a private garden in Memphis, Tennessee.

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

Ruby-tailed Wasp (Chrysis sp) investigating every nook & cranny of my garden wall.

The bright scarlet color of Bee Balm (Monarda) in my garden is definitely a favored bloom for the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds. This juvenile male will eventually have throat feathers that will match the ruby-red of the flower he loves. Tomahawk, WI 7/20/2020
