Ruby throated hummingbird

Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada, Sept 14, 2018.

Not a rarity but still a lovely little bird. I like its tiny dangling feet.

Archilochus colubris
Scientists place hummingbirds and swifts in the same taxonomic order, the Apodiformes. The name means “without feet,” which is certainly how these birds look most of the time.
