Short Stuff

This cute rascal is a Ruby-throated hummingbird.  A tiny, zippy bird that is one of my favorites…and most challenging to photograph.  This particular one seems to be a short, stocky gal – but she wears it well, don’t you think?

I believe the hummingbirds that have entertained us this year have flown south for the winter.  We haven’t seen one for a week or so.
