This tiny bird flitted around me for a good ten minutes. It was hunting for insects that were wintering under the holly leaves. It spent much energy hover-flying under the leaves.

An interesting species fact: The female Kinglet will lay a large clutch of eggs with the weight of the eggs equal to the weight of the bird.

Ruby at the Grand Canyon in 2013. My wife insisted she wear her "Princess" dress for the outing. Her Majesty surveying the majestic scenery. Or just trying to figure out how to get to the lizard on the rock. :)

The hummingbirds certainly enjoyed the sugar water I put out for them, but the natural stuff is still good too.

 

Los colibríes disfrutaron mucho del agua azucarada que les dejaba, pero el néctar natural todavía es bueno.

Males with full ruby throats are so rare at the English Garden, Winnipeg's main hummingbird accumulation spot during the out migration, that I had never seen one in 5 migrations until now. Males migrate much sooner than females and traditionally by-pass the Garden.

 

This fellow was being harassed repeatedly by females, which made him much harder to photograph.

Ruby-crowned Kinglet - Occoquan Bay National Wildlife Refuge

Ruby Tuesday #5064 (closed) [4,692 square feet]

5310 West Broad Street, Richmond, VA

 

This location opened in July 2005 and closed on March 3rd, 2018. It became a First Watch on February 8th, 2021.

 

The site originally housed My Sisters Restaurant, which opened on July 16th, 1953. It became The Broadmoor Fine Foods/Broadmoor Teletray Drive Inn/Broadmoor Restaurant on July 14th, 1954, Shoney's Big Boy on October 12th, 1958, which relocated here in spring 1976, Ground Round in winter 1982, which closed in April 1994, and Richmond Finance Company in the late 1990s.

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.

not done in time for christmas, but perhaps it'll be my first finished quilt for 2012! Blogged here.

Ruby Beach, WA, is my favorite place for taking this kind of shot. This one is noisy and not especially well-composed. I took it as I was leaving. I'm going back this spring.

A little ruby x rails fanart just for you~

 

Note: "Ruby-chan" concept is something I discovered in ancient Ruby mascot discussions. Fox Small is a creation of the great Why the Lucky Stiff.

Ruby-throated Hummingbird. I believe this is a juvie male. He never got to the angle where I could see his couple of red neck spots. With getting our new puppy, I have not had time to be with the hummers like I want to be. My time is all spent with the new guy, but I managed to get out today and get some shots (had my husband babysit the puppy). These guys will probably be leaving in about 3 weeks.

Ruby-throated_Hummingbird_(Female)_090821_1605_06507.2_Highview,_KY

A ruby-throated hummingbird with iridescent throat feathers perches delicately on a branch against a clear blue sky. Sunlight highlights the bird's translucent wings as it appears ready to take flight!!!

From the moment I saw these birds in the trees around the cottage we visit, a few years ago, I have been trying to figure out how to get decent photographs. This summer I settled on identifying perches used periodically, and then getting in range of one of the perches. This meant two things: being on the roof, and being subject to shifting light and backgrounds. On the other hand, some of their grooming poses were amazing. It was a lot of fun hanging out with them.
