Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are such adorable little birds!
It was so much fun to watch this little female taking a bath from a sprinkler! If you look close, you can see a few water droplets from her feathers.☺️

MANY THANKS FOR YOUR VISITS, COMMENTS AND FAVES
THEY ARE VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!
Last year I spent a good amount of time shooting the most common Florida hummingbird, the Ruby-throated. All I saw were females, which while beautiful, lack the bright iridescent throat that gives the species its name. When I read up on them, I learned that most of them in South Florida are migratory, the males arriving and departing first. Several friends let me know that they had males at their homes well after the males must have left the area where I was shooting. I’ve recently spent many hours attempting to get the shot I had in mind, a male Ruby-throated with its ruby gorget lit up by the sun. Let me tell you, it’s not easy. I managed to get several that I thought were good, but not what I had in mind. Yesterday, I finally got one that fit my mental picture of what I was after. I’m not done and have some other poses and backgrounds I’m after and will hopefully get before they migrate out in the spring. (Or I get invited to someone’s house where they stay year long. Hint, hint.) (Archilochus colubris) (Sony a9iii, 400mm lens with 1.4 extender for 560mm, f/4, 1/6400 second, ISO 6400)

The woman in the shot stood there forever, so I ultimately had to incorporate her into my composition for this view and then I changed positions. What was frustrating is she wasn't even looking at the sunset or the landscape. She spent most of the time texting on her phone. So I thought about titling the series of shots with her, "Untouched by nature".
Got out early this morning in an effort to beat the heat with hopes of getting a look at the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds feeding on the Coral Bean. While the opportunities were few, this one worked out rather well for me.
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.

A notification on my phone this morning reminded me that it was a year to the day since I travelled out to Australia for a three week trip. Time for another look back through my photo catalogue to find some of the images from that trip that I didn't post to flickr at the time.
While walking around Airlie this morning, I passed this little bird hopping around near my feet on a pathway. I was absolutely thrilled to see this beautiful Ruby-crowned Kinglet! While I got low to the ground, he kept hopping towards me and at times, too close to focus! I like this shot because it displays his "crown", is in decent light and the snow adds something too!
Ruby Canyon, which carries the Colorado River for 25 miles, is in the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area in western Colorado. From my campsite.
I spent a good bit of time photographing Ruby-throated Hummingbirds a couple of days ago, before the rains shut everything down. In all that time I did not see one male, which is the only sex that sports the ruby neck. That said, this female is quite lovely and I’m sure has many suitors. (Archilochus colubris) (Sony a1, 400mm, f/2.8, 1/2000 second, ISO 6400)
It was quite a challenge to grab a shot of this active little bird, who gave me an occasional peek at his ruby red spot as he jumped from branch to branch!

The other day while taking photos, I observed two hummingbirds chasing each other around the yard. Several times one of them had stopped no more than five feet in front of me and hovered for a few seconds before continuing on its way. As if taunting me, they just hung there until I began to bring the camera up, then they flew off. <a href="https://corey-bourassa-photos.squarespace.com/journal/2016/9/9/ruby-throated-hummingbirds">Read more ...</a>

Thanks for viewing my photos and for any favourites and comments, it’s much appreciated
Verneuil Ruby on a background of natural Pink/Purple Ruby in grey Zoisite
Just used a Canon Power Shot A480 that I paid a euro for at a thrift store. Used the macro setting.
Beautiful oval verneuil ruby, very nice checkerboard size
Format 12 by 10 mm
Hand-cut by Jura lapidary in France in the 1970s
Lab produced Verneuil Rubies have the same chemical composition as natural Rubies, both have Aluminium Oxide and both have Chromium that gives the red colour. They both have the same high density of 4.0 g/cm3 and the Moh's hardness scratch resistance of 9, second only to diamond. The Verneuil Ruby is only a minute fraction of the cost of natural Ruby. The colour is also very similar, differing with inclusions. Just like lab produced Diamonds can be a beautiful gem, so likewise are lab produced Rubies. Synthetic stones are REAL and are NOT imitations or simulants.

Ish 46:3-5
3 Hearken unto me, O house of Jacob, and all the remnant of the house of Israel, which are borne by me from the belly, which are carried from the womb:
4 And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.
5 To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?
A flash of green and red, 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.
On a cloudy somewhat dreary day with a couple hours to kill, we stopped by the Butterfly Garden. As always, the RCKs are the most cooperative bathers.
Cedar Creek flows to the Pacific at log strewn Ruby Beach in Olympic NP. The sun had already fallen below the horizon when I arrived, but luckily the sunset light had not entirely dissipated.

Lots of hummingbirds around. The weather has been very dry and our wildflower garden doesn't have many blooms.

Archilochus colubris
Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are eastern North America’s only breeding hummingbird. But in terms of area, this species occupies the largest breeding range of any North American hummingbird.
