Ruby-topaz Hummingbird

What a thrill to spot this jewel of a hummingbird here in Aruba!

The Ruby-topaz Hummingbird is a very small hummingbird, with a brilliant ruby crown and nape, iridescent gold throat and breast and bright orange tail. It forages for the nectar of flowering shrubs from the understory to treetops in open country but also in cultivated areas and gardens.


The 3 Amigos have arrived at their new vacation home, and are staying with landscapeartist.  She took them to a great store where they really got into weaving!
