I have a new visitor to the garden. At first ,I thought it is a juvenile female Ruby Throat, but I am not at all positive. She seems smaller and the body shape is different . Any thoughts on the ID would be appreciated.



As always, your nits, crits and suggestions are most appreciated.

Hope you enjoy and thank you for looking.

Birdie

I agree with Louie - those are outstanding images, Birdie! I am bad at identifying birds, including hummingbirds.... .

Beautiful shots Birdie. Sure looks like a Ruby Throat, but I will defer to the experts.

These shots definitely have the Wow factor. The colors along with the droplets on the flowers in number three are fantastic.

What gorgeous imagery. I am ALWAYS impressed by your work!

I think this is a female ruby throat, could be a juvenile from its pristine look.

Ours are already gone south.

thanks for posting.

Colorful and so pretty Birdie.

We're these recently photographed?
Your flowers still look so fresh and new🌹

It looks like a RTH to me.

Have a great day!

I think this is the latest I have had a female Ruby hang around. Hope she stays a bit longer.

Thanks Don, glad you like them. I did not even notice the drop when I was taking the shot. It was a happy surprise.

Gene, I do so appreciate your very kind words. I do think it is a young one as she seems a bit smaller .
