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. :)
Ruby-throated hummingbirds are known for their rapid wing beats and agile flying abilities.

The hummingbirds certainly enjoyed the sugar water I put out for them, but the natural stuff is still good too.
Los colibrÃes disfrutaron mucho del agua azucarada que les dejaba, pero el néctar natural todavÃa 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.
My sweet daughter in law took this shot. Ruby is wearing a hat and bib that I bought in the hospital gift shop. She is still in the hospital and may go home tomorrow. This was the closest we could get to a photo shoot!!! Thank you for your kind well wishes and comments!

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.

A tiny bird seemingly overflowing with energy, the Ruby-crowned Kinglet forages almost frantically through lower branches of shrubs and trees. Its habit of constantly flicking its wings is a key identification clue. Smaller than a warbler or chickadee, this plain green-gray bird has a white eyering and a white bar on the wing. Alas, the male’s brilliant ruby crown patch usually stays hidden—your best chance to see it is to find an excited male singing in spring or summer.
Ruby Court is a development of small office units at the edge of Downtown Micropolis. It gets its name from the dark red glass sculpture which adorns the courtyard in the middle of the buildings. Ref: D1739-14

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.
Visiting Cypress Mountain I saw both Golden-crowned Kinglets and Ruby Kinglets. I was not able to get good photos of the Golden-crowned Kinglets but this Ruby-Crowned Kinglet was quite cooperative.
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 Marsh, Nevada
Some basins, in the "basin and range" country, have limestone as their country rock and therefore developed underground outflow routes which insured that the basin does not become a salt/alkaline flat. Because they are sunken marshes much of the year, large scale cattle/sheep grazing was discouraged. Therefore, most of the native grasses are intact. The natural wildlife staff also periodically burns to insure a return to a multiple species "prairie" flora, much in the way that both natural and hunting fires insured this in the past. The "hillside" forest is classic Pinyon Pine/Juniper. The Ruby Mountains are capped by glaciated granite (the ranges core) and look very much like the "high sierras".
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.
