Female Ruby Throated Hummingbird




A female Ruby Throated Hummingbird stands guard over one of the nectar feeders. Unusual in that a male has not forced her out, but I have 3 feeders to try and reduce fighting, and the females can hold their own. They tend to be a little bigger with a longer bill, a white flecked throat and, most obviously, white at the tips of their tail feathers. You'll hear the soothing sounds of a Mourning Dove at the beginning and the sweet chirp of American Goldfinches after about the 2-minute mark.
