This Female Ruby Throated Hummingbird has been drinking nectar all day between two feeders outside of my kitchen window. She decided to perch for quite a while on the hummingbird perch my sister gave me four years ago. The hummingbirds absolutely love it! She’s gotten pretty chubby, so I don’t know how much longer she’ll be hanging around here.

Besides this little girl, I also have two more that are still hanging around. One is pretty skinny, and the other one is smaller in size, so I am assuming they could be a female and a juvenile. It’s kind of hard to tell because they are always so fast!
