Our World Tuesday and All Seasons

We enjoy feeding the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds, Archilochus colubris, that visit us each Summer. They are very small migratory birds that spend the cold months in Mexico and Central America before coming north in the Spring to breed and raise their young. Pictured is a female; only the males have red throats. Their natural foods are flower nectar and insects. Feeders are filled with a mixture of sugar and water.
I am linking up today with Our World Tuesday and All Seasons

Our hummingbird feeder is leaking and we need to replace it. Then I may be posting images just like yours!
ReplyDeleteHello, I love the hummers, I always enjoy seeing them! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThey are tiny, never realised they were that small
ReplyDeleteHow sweet! An excellent capture!
ReplyDeleteSuch a perfect capture!
ReplyDeleteA pretty little one.
ReplyDeleteI'm still trying to capture good, close-up photos of the hummingbirds that visit my feeder. Yours is perfect!
ReplyDeleteShe is lovely, Lea!
ReplyDeleteWe don't have the Ruby throat Hummers here but Rufous which look a lot like the Ruby throated ones. Odd huh. We also have Anna's Hummingbirds and they stay year-round.
