RUBY-THROATED HUMMINGBIRD-07231818

First year male Ruby Throated Hummingbird - Green Spring Gardens Park

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.

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.

Goofy pose! Not sure what he was doing.

Grape fruit =)

 

The grapefruit is a large citrus fruit related to the orange, lemon and pomelo. Grapefruits are categorized as white (blond), pink or ruby. However, this terminology doesn't reflect their skin color, which is either yellow or pinkish-yellow, but rather describes the color of their flesh.

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

If anyone is crazy enough to, oh say try and link a Rolling Stones song to a Mendip quarries rail movement then 66540 'Ruby' is an obvious candidate. ne's pais?. Well, I have five images of 66540, two are on Freightliner container workings ironically both taken at Battens bridge at Bathampton (on different dates), the other three are all on Mendip empties (not loaded so not really fitting the 'Rolling Stones-Stones Rolling' narrative) and all taken on a Thursday(!) - but here's one of them anyway.

 

In some very weak sunshine at Witchcombe farm bridge, Freightliner's 66540 Ruby drags 6C58 11:45 Oxford Banbury Road to Whatley Quarry empties away from Great Cheverell.

 

The 1967 release 'Ruby Tuesday' was a double A-side (remember those pop-pickers?) with 'Let's Spend the Night Together'.

  

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

I took this on a Wednesday but what the heck. Ruby does sleep in the strangest positions.

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!

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.

Ruby-crowned Kinglets are olive-green birds with a prominent white eyering and white wingbar. This wingbar contrasts with an adjacent blackish bar in the wing.

Ruby Throated Hummingbird - Green Spring Gardens Park

The Ruby-crowned Kinglet has the sweetest little spring song. Quite pleased to hear it and capture a few images of them.

This ruby-throated hummingbird was checking out the butterfly bush.

Ruby from the RWBY CGI animated series. I ran into Mangoloo for only a couple of seconds at Katsucon and was able to snag only two pics of her. I live by the old adage, "Make the best use of what you've got." and ran with it.

 

I wanted to give this image more of an old-time feel. If you've ever watched any of the series, the animation is cutting edge but has a retro feel to it. Not quite Steampunk but more Jules Verne. I used Topaz Labs' DeNoise AI and Nik Software's Analog Efex Pro - Wet Plate filters to achieve the look I wanted to portray.
