Ruby-throated Hummingbird

Posted by willow (Chelsea, United States) on 11 August 2008 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

I don't think I've ever seen one of these little guys actually sitting still before. I couldn't really even see him until he turned his head and his brilliant ruby collar shone in the light.

I have been totally overwhelmed again lately. Sorry I've been so lousy about commenting on your photos. I do visit every time I have a few free minutes. I hope you all are well and I hope to "see" you more soon.

Thank you for visiting and commenting and sharing your photos! I love this site and all the people that make it so great. Photography is my passion and this is the perfect place for sharing that passion with other people who feel the same way.

Don't forget Silly Tuesday!!!! For more info see Liner's blog.
