Ruby Falls. 145 ft waterfalls inside a cavern 1120 feet beneath Lookout Mountain. The colors are caused by lights setup to enhance the view of the falls. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruby_Falls

Another older image brought forward. I'm showing you images that continue to get a lot of views.

Ruby Throated Hummingbird

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hummingbirds have many skeletal and flight muscle adaptations which allow great agility in flight. Muscles make up 25–30% of their body weight, and they have long, blade-like wings that, unlike the wings of other birds, connect to the body only from the shoulder joint. This adaptation allows the wing to rotate almost 180°, enabling the bird to fly not only forward but backward, and to hover in mid-air, flight capabilities that are similar to insects and unique among birds. Hummingbird hovering has been estimated to be 20% more efficient than performed by a helicopter drone.

This ruby-throated hummingbird was acting like a "feeder guard" protecting the feeders from any usurpers to his territory.

 

Este colibrí garganta rubí hacía guardia y protegía "sus" comedores contra cualquier usurpador que hubiera.

Goofy pose! Not sure what he was doing.

Ruby Throated Hummingbird - Green Spring Gardens

These kinglets are tiny, energetic birds. Smaller than a warbler. Always nervously flitting about in foliage, often foraging for small insects. This is the first male I've shot with his crest extended.

 

Our beautiful world, pass it on.

So Ruby and Moose had their playdate this morning. They were together for a couple of hours and it went quite well, I think.

 

They didn't flat out fight at all, but there were some rocky moments. Moose tried to hump Ruby a few times, and pulled out a mouthful of her fur at one point. Overall, Moose showed more interest in Ruby than Ruby did in Moose. But after an hour or so, Ruby at least tolerated Moose, allowing him to groom her and they sat close together for a good while.

 

The start of a loving relationship? We'll see. I'm taking Ruby back over to the sitters next week and let her stay there with Moose for a couple of nights.

Ruby Throated Hummingbird Green Spring Gardens - I think it was telling me what it thought of my photographing it.

Sorry for the huge upload! I just wanted to get June finished!

 

I went for a relaxing drive with two of my friends just for the scenery. I enjoyed myself because I did not have to drive and was able to get some photos of the mountain scenery through the windshield!

 

We went for a little walk while at Upper Kananaskis Lake and I was surprised to have a Ruby-crowned Kinglet flitting about. Terrible photo but at least I saw it.

 

Thanks for your visits and comments! They are all greatly appreciated!

Ruby the rollergirl is ready to skate into your heart!

 

Ruby was created especially as a donation for a raffle at Blythecon - so you might go home with your very own new happibug! Ruby sports an anchor tattoo in honor of her roller derby team, "The Portland Sailors". When she's not working out with her team, Ruby studies medicine at Oregon Health and Science University. Ruby is a custom Simply Chocolate (fbl mold) with an adorable layered bob. Ruby skates to win in her dollicious romper in blue polka dots and red stripes, with a removable anchor pin. She has a felt helmet decorated with sequined polka dots (to protect her smart and pretty little head during derby games!) and handpainted matching roller skates with little rhinestones on the wheels! Ruby's pull charms are an anchor and a tag that says "smile" because that's what we hope Ruby will make you do! <3

 

Thanks so much for visiting and saying "Hi" to Ruby! Together, we send you lots of love!

Ruby Farm has been a family run business since the 1850s. On Saturday morning in late summer you can buy vegetables from this location.

Just after sunset the thick bank of fog that had shrouded Ruby Beach almost all day began to clear so I stood among the rocks and continued making exposures until the light was gone.

 

Cheers!

The Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge was purchased from Albert Hankins and established in 1938/39 by the U. S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service.The refuge covers 37,632 acres in the south end of Ruby Valley. At one time the area was covered by a 200 foot deep, 3000,800-acre lake known as Franklin Lake. Presently 12,000 acres of marshland remain on the refuge grounds. North of the refuge is a 15,000-acre seasonal wetland that is now referred to as Franklin Lake.

Beautiful colors at Ruby Falls in Tennessee.

Do you see me? Ruby-throated hummingbirds have surprisingly good camouflage.

Ruby-crowned Kinglet (Regulus calendula).

Local park Mississauga, ON

The ruby-throated hummingbirds really like the purple salvia. I was watching insects on the garden flowers when this one came in.

We spotted this ruby-throated hummingbird perched near a prairie dock flower. Prairie dock is a native perennial with several showy yellow flowers. The plant can grow more than 6 feet tall. Even with its height, it's still able to stand upright after a couple major storms. It's fairly easy to establish for any backyard habitat enthusiast.

Ruby-crowned Kinglet (Regulus calendula), local park Mississauga, ON

My first Kinglet of this fall.

There have been several sightings of these birds on the grounds at Strawberry Plains Audubon Center. Many more should arrive by the end of the month.

This side is covered to the brim in tiny faceted rondelles of ruby, over 100 of them, closely bound to create a dome shape.

Ruby Rose has a little mark on her forehead. A legacy of living in a toy box, perhaps. Rebecca did a great job smoothing it out and getting rid of lots of scratches. The plastic is a little white around her mark, but its what makes this little kenner girl special to me. Funnily enough its endearing and tells her story. Its her battle scar, her war wound. I love her for it.
