Ruby-throated Hummingbird



Tonight at my feeder in Central I watched a First fall male Ruby-throated Hummingbird. After very careful study to eliminate everything but a Archilochus Hummingbird while watching the bird through my scope I was able to see a few red gorget feathers. The bird was defending one of my feeders from all other hummers up until dark so I hope it will still be around in the morning.I did get some poor quality photos through my scope but I hope to get better ones in the morning. I will let you know if it's still around tomorrow if anyone wants to look for it.
