Last month I took some photos of two visiting hummingbirds. Last night I reviewed them, and while one of the birds is definitely a ruby-throated female, the other one has a wash of rust along its flank. Here is a pic: http://s660.photobucket.com/albums/uu330/Kapella1/?action=view¤t=notarubytroatedmaybe.jpg I suspect it is a ruby throated, but would like to make sure. This particular bird was very pugnacious. Perhaps a juvenile male?
