Yes, the males are black with a red neck or throat.
The females are green with white or grey on their throat.
When I started watching humming birds I thought the different colors meant different breeds. Ruby Throated males and green females are usually pairs and are the only humming birds that are native to the east coast.

is it an artificial flower or something to drink water?
I like the photos of the humminbird flying.
Here the hummingbirds are green-tornasolados. But I´m a bit daltonic.

It's an actual humming bird feeder filled with a sugar water mix that the humming birds just have to have. The sweeter the better.
