Only the adult males have the ruby throats. Females as well as adolescent males do not.

Learn something new every day here. I learned that boy hummingbirds are prettier than girl hummingbirds!

Though I do know that that's so they can attract the cute females.

I thought that was true for the whole animal kingdom. The bright red cardinals are the males the females are a muddy red. The male lion has the mane and the females do not. and so on ................
