My late M-I-L gifted these to me when she passed away several years ago. I think they are gorgeous!

Hummingbirds split from their sister group, the swifts and tree swifts, around 42 million years ago. The common ancestor of extant hummingbirds is estimated to have lived 22 million years in South America. They are known as hummingbirds because of the humming sound created by their beating wings, which flap at high frequencies audible to humans.

The Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) is a small, migratory bird common in eastern North America, known for the male's vibrant ruby-red throat (gorget) and rapid wing beats that produce a humming sound. These birds migrate between breeding grounds in eastern North America and wintering grounds in Mexico, Central America, and Florida. They feed on nectar from tubular flowers and insects, and are important pollinators.

These colourful parasitic wasps are sometimes known as Cuckoo wasps. This is due to the habit of laying their eggs in the nests of solitary bees or wasps. When their larva hatch they feed on larva of the host. This one was checking holes on the trunk of a long dead oak tree.

 

With thanks to Dom for finding this one for me.

Another shot of this Ruby-crowned Kinglet, a little glimpse of the ruby crown showing through.

Sadly missed.

Beautiful female ruby-throated hummingbird feeding at the not-so-beautiful flowers.

I was surprised to see this Kinglet pop up in my viewfinder. I thought it was a little early to be seeing them here in Georgia....9-29-2021...No Ruby showing, but a kinglet nonetheless...;-)

When I saw this dragonfly I've bben a little bit astonished becaues I thought this to be a white-faced darter. Later I reckognized that this is a ruby whiteface whis had been reported only one time in the Black forest for 30 years.

 

Als ich die Libelle sah, dachte ich, es wäre eine Kleine Moosjungfer, die außerhalb ihrer üblichen Umgebung, dem Hochmoor, unterwegs wäre. Später bemerkte ich, daß es sich um die Nordische Moosjungfer handelt, die in den letzten 30 Jahren nur 1x im Schwarzwald gemeldet wurde.

Here's a little better shot of Ruby Beach. As you can tell, the fog had rolled in, but by this point, it was starting to burn off, thankfully! Hope you enjoy!

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.

Ruby on Red - In additional to the Gallinule, I was able to capture this Ruby-crowned Kinglet against some nice red berries. Too bad the crown wasn't showing in this frame - would have been great color coordination. Great reflex/autofocus practice, nevertheless.
