Ruby Throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris)

This fellow hangs around a feeder that is very close to where I sit on my deck. He's often on a branch just a few meters away. I often talk to him and he seems quite relaxed around me. So much so that he rarely shows his ruby throat patch. Maybe I should re-name him the Sometimes Ruby Throated Hummingbird! lol
