Ruby Throated Hummingbird - Fancy Gap, Virginia
Bird Species (# 201) that I photographed and placed on my Flickr Photostream. Overall goal is 1000
Here is a shot of a Ruby-throated Hummingbird that stopped by this afternoon. I never knew his beak was two pieces?
This throwback is from August of 2015.
This Ruby-throated Hummingbird seemed a little weak and slow. I'm not sure what was wrong with it, but hopefully all it needed was a little nectar and rest.
I can't imagine ever getting a better photo of a hummingbird than this. I was able to get very close to it. Much closer than you'd typically be able to get to a hummingbird.
Hummingbirds love Mexican Sunflowers. It's one of the only non-native plants that I still grow because of how many hummingbirds it attracts, as well as butterflies and bees. Monarchs love it during their autumn migration.
You can see a previous photo from the same shoot here:
I guess this little one was not angry enough at me to flash his crown. I just got the look that said "you're not food" and off he went.
A female ruby-throated hummingbird from Labor Day weekend at Mill Pond. I think its a female although I suppose it could be an immature male. I staked them out at the garden and awaited my chance. This was the best I could do. Not too much noise for ISO 800 and a little crop. Such quick little buggers.
Little Ruby is definitely my best poser:) She enjoyed a few bits of meat today as she tried her hardest to stay still.
A flash of green and red, the Ruby-throated Hummingbird is eastern North America’s sole breeding hummingbird. These brilliant, tiny, precision-flying creatures glitter like jewels in the full sun, then vanish with a zip toward the next nectar source.
The Ruby-throated Hummingbird beats its wings about 53 times a second.
A winter bird in Oklahoma, breeds in spruce-fir forests of northern and mountainous U.S. A teeny bird weighing about .3 oz, but lays large clutches. Can produce as many as a dozen eggs. Our beautiful world, pass it on.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird... focus is a tad soft. I try to get shots of them in flight but away from the feeder which is a bit more difficult. If you want to provide food I suggest planting native wildflowers such as cardinal flower, blue lobelia, bee balm, red buckeye, blue sage. Non-natives that they seem to enjoy include any purple flowered sage... red or purple tubular flowers in general. My complete photo archive is available here.
