I have seen these birds a few times this season but this is the first shot I have gotten. Love these little birds!
Ruby Throated Hummingbird in very challenging light on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia
We travelled nearly 400 miles through the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains - unfortunately most of the drive was through cloud and fog
This photograph is very impressive considering that it was taken in heavily overcast backlit conditions, handholding a telephoto lens at 1/200 trying to capture a very active subject

Here is Pearl reflected in Ruby.
Ruby is a gorgeous Red Camper van all decked out with sweet retro accessories.
The reflection is a cream sweetie, called Pearl - I was very excited to see that www.snailtrail.co.uk have a van named the same as one of my little poppets...
Thanks for Front page Explore kind people ;)

I went through a lot of work to get this shot. The trail I walked was longer and hillier than I thought it would be. I got my days workout on this one. Not a lot to see but I was a happy to see this little Ruby-crowned Kinglet.
* I wonder if this might be a Hutton's Vireo?

This is right below the parking lot at Ruby Beach, looking South. We were riding in decent weather until we made it out to the coast and then it was semi-foggy and cold. Typical Washington coast.

Dream if you can a courtyard
An ocean of violets in bloom
Animals strike curious poses
They feel the heat
The heat between me and you

Chrysis ignita, also known as the ruby-tailed wasp, is a species of cuckoo wasps. Cuckoo wasps are kleptoparasites – they lay their eggs in the nests of other wasp species and their young consume the eggs or larva of the host wasp for sustenance

Still on my trip, and then I have tests in every single one of my college classes when I get back! Ugh
I promise to catch up on your photos very soon! Be patient with me please! :)
This is a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird feeding on one of his favorite flowers on my patio - a variety of Lantana called "Red Spread." They seem to prefer any of the varieties that have red flowers, but feed from the yellow blossoms in the center. The wings are a bit blurred - I think he must have moved. I took this at 1/800th of a second, so that gives you some idea how fast the wings move.

male ruby. they can fly at about 30 mph, they weigh less than a nickel (topping out at 3 grams while nickel weighs 5 grams) and their wings beat 60-80 times per second. a little marvel of nature.

Photo of a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris). The flowers in the background are red and pink Geraniums (Geranium Caliente).
The photo was taken using manual focus. To capture detail in the wings, two remote Speedlite flash units were used with flash mode set to Manual and flash power set to 1/32.
To answer a question on how this was accomplished using what appears to be a slow shutter speed of 1/180 second, it is an example of the use of High-Speed Photography, using flash on low power, as well as the Max Sync Speed for your camera (1/180 for the Canon 6D). It's a very complex topic.
Little Ruby is definitely my best poser:) She enjoyed a few bits of meat today as she tried her hardest to stay still.
This is a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris). The flowers are Platycodon Astra Blue, also known as Balloon Flowers.
From AI: "Hummingbirds are considered to be some of nature’s most energetic pollinators. While they’re busy sipping nectar from flowers with their long, specialized bills, pollen often clings to their heads and beaks, which they then carry to the next bloom. This makes them key players in pollinating a wide variety of plants, especially ones with tubular flowers that bees might find tricky to access. In fact, some plants have evolved specifically to attract hummingbirds".
Ruby sleeping!
In HDR. I felt like going overboard today, so what do you know? I like HDR, it's not my fave but it's OK. Some people think there's something wrong with HDR but I am indifferent really. I like the way it produces nice reflections in windows and nice shadows.
A really fast little bird, it was tearing through the hedge snapping up food.
It paused just long enough to get a reasonably good shot.
It bounces through the pond but doesn't linger for a bath.
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.
