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".

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)

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.☺️

A Ruby-tailed Wasp leaving a hole in one of our garden bee-hotels. They are VERY active and when I saw it entering the hole, I waited with my camera for it to emerge. They often pause before flying off.

From last week-- I thought I'd mix in some other pics with the fall landscapes and water shots. They are still around in our yard, off and on. I think this pic really gives a feel for their flightiness-- they are always moving. Glendale, Missouri

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

One of the many birds that cme into the yard while I was having coffee.

Not sure if is a drop of nectar from the feeder or an insect that was on the feeder.

Ruby Canyon, which carries the Colorado River for 25 miles, is in the McInnis Canyons National Conservation Area in western Colorado. From my campsite.

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!

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.

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.

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.

I found this little cutie in my yard...he likes to visit my suet for an easy meal. I'm still waiting to see a Golden-crowned kinglet in the yard to add to my yard list!

Fall is in the air - rainy and cool. We still had two hummingbirds in our backyard yesterday. Hope they head south soon!

Ruby crowned kinglet, Roseville, CA

This ruby-throated hummingbird (a female or juvenile) perched above my garden as I staked it out with my camera today. I was able to creep very closely and zoom in. She soon saw another hummingbird and took off in pursuit, though.
