Some pictures of our latest back yard guest. I had been working under the assumption that it was a ruby-throated hummingbird (the kind I’m familiar with from back east), but apparently they don’t make it out this far. If it were a ruby-throated, this would be a girl, as it lacks the eponymous red throat. But, not being a ruby-throat, I don’t know what kind of birdie it is, except that it’s cute, and very happy with its new feeder. As always, click for big, click again for bigger.
Excellent shots of the hummingbird — I'm very impressed! We really should get a feeder here, we have so many…
Wow, great pictures! Gotta love hummingbirds.
