Do you think this is the female Ruby throated Hummingbird? I think it is but I am not sure.

Looks like a female to me. The hummers here are having to fight off the bees who are at my hummingbird feeders now. It seems like they're eating a lot more than usual like they do before they leave for the season...I'm not ready for fall.
