male hummingbird for Ruby Tuesday

This species has been shown before, but this glimpse of a young male Ruby-throated hummingbird perched in a tree appears to be so refreshing and new that its seems appropiate to post its image again for my red contribution to RubyTuesday. Please click on the picture to enlarge for a closer view.

Hummingbirds are so delightful and so talented.

Cool shot. I don't think I have ever seen a hummingbird perched on a branch. I usually see them hovering over flowers.

Great! I seem to see lots of females, but seldom see the male when I have my camera handy. He looks like an ornament perched on the tree limb.
