I have never seen a smoother-running Accucraft Ruby. When you consider this one hasn't had the inside/outside admission swapped, it is mind-blowing. It also has the stock pistons. A lot of us upgraded to a larger bore piston.
My friend Mike spent a while fiddling with the eccentrics to nail the timing perfectly.

I remember how excited I was the first time I saw the Ruby-crowned Kinglet in my bird bath earlier this year. It was so skittish and took me a long time before I got a photo. This little one has become so comfortable with the amenities in my yard, he/she has been willing to pose for some photos today. I am so happy to welcome a new regular to my yard. BUT, the other regular Cooper's Hawk came for a visit today, too. I don't think it got anything, but you know...

The Ruby-throated Hummingbird is a small hummingbird with a slender, slightly down curved bill and fairly short wings that don't reach all the way to the tail when the bird is sitting.
Ruby-throated Hummingbirds are bright emerald or golden-green on the back and brown, with gray-white underparts. Males have a brilliant iridescent red throat that looks dark when it's not in good light.

Such gorgeous colour on the throat.

This very small bird is a winter visitor to my feeders the last few years and is a delight to watch. Only the Ruby Throat Hummingbirds are smaller of the birds that visit my area.
I think this is a Ruby Throated Hummingbird, but I may be wrong. His colors are a little different than pics I found on line of Colorado birds.
He is very small, about 2"-3" long, he landed in a branch just above me and just sat there quietly.

Ruby-crowned Kinglets in coastal southern Alaska and British Columbia are slightly smaller and darker colored than elsewhere in their range.
Ruby-crowned Kinglets are olive-green birds with a prominent white eye ring and white wingbar. This wingbar contrasts with an adjacent blackish bar in the wing. The “ruby crown” of the male is only occasionally visible.
These are restless, acrobatic birds that move quickly through foliage, typically at lower and middle levels. They flick their wings almost as they go.
These little Birds rarely stop , constantly on the move.
What can I tell ya.... I'm obsessed with hummingbirds! I've been anxiously waiting for them to show up this season, but in New Jersey, it's a rare find so far. I shot this ruby throated hummer last year and popped him on the blue-eyed grass shot I took two days ago. Hummingbirds are my all time favorite subject to photograph, probably because they're rare AND hard to capture...

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

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.

I heard this little one before I spotted him bouncing around the bushes on the banks of Fishtrap Creek. So quick to move.

A ruby‑crowned kinglet may be tiny, but its winter physiology is remarkably engineered for the severe cold that settles over its winter habitat in the Oklahoma Cross Timbers. When Arctic air pushes through the post oaks and blackjacks, the kinglet increases its metabolic rate to one of the highest recorded in any songbird, burning calories at a rapid pace to maintain core temperature. Its contour feathers loft into a dense insulating layer, reducing heat loss.
Throughout the day, it forages almost nonstop, gleaning dormant insects, eggs, and spiders from bark crevices and cedar foliage—micro‑prey that provide the high‑energy intake needed to offset nighttime losses. At dusk, it seeks dense cover in thickets or cedar trees, where the wind chill effect is less.
A master of microhabitats and metabolic precision, thriving in winter’s harshest conditions.
