The Ruby Throat Hummingbirds are still around. We see them frequently, but 
photos are harder to obtain.  This female is the one who appears to be 
dominant in selecting which ones can feed and which ones are denied the 
priviledge. Their aerobatic manuevers are fun to watch.

Shot in RAW through two panes of glass with Oly E-510, an old Hanimex 
135/2.8 lens, ISO 200, 1/750 at 2.8, finished in Elements 6.0.  Cropped 
considerably.
