Ruby Throated Hummingbird perched on a giant sunflower stem. For more pictures like these see www.capture-the-pixel.com.
Unfortunately Ruby has slight skin issue on her tummy due to excessive grooming, therefore has to wear a collar for hopefully a short while.
She does not mind it to much once on, but squirms a bit when trying to put it on. I have cut it down so she can eat & drink.

Got up to an early start this morning in downtown and did some snapping before work. Somehow I missed the ruby crown on this guy...oh well there is always a next time.

The ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) is a species of hummingbird that generally spends the winter in Central America, Mexico, and Florida, and migrates to Eastern North America for the summer to breed. It is by far the most common hummingbird seen east of the Mississippi River in North America.
This hummingbird is from 7 to 9 cm (2.8 to 3.5 in) long and has an 8 to 11 cm (3.1 to 4.3 in) wingspan. Weight can range from 2 to 6 g (0.071 to 0.212 oz), with males averaging 3.4 g (0.12 oz) against the slightly larger female which averages 3.8 g (0.13 oz).[2][3] Adults are metallic green above and greyish white below, with near-black wings. Their bill, at up to 2 cm (0.79 in), is long, straight, and very slender. As in all hummingbirds, the toes and feet of this species are quite small, with a middle toe of around 0.6 cm (0.24 in) and a tarsus of approximately 0.4 cm (0.16 in). The ruby-throated hummingbird can only shuffle if it wants to move along a branch, though it can scratch its head and neck with its feet
