In many birds the males have more beautiful colors than females because the females don't need them. The males use them to scare off other males and to attract females. The females don't need them for anything.

What is the most common hummingbird in Alabama?

The rubythroat hummingbird is the most common to all parts of Alabama. The male can be recognized by his deep red throat patch and dark green back. The female looks like the male except she has no red on her throat and has a lighter green back. Occasionally, the rufus hummingbird is seen in Alabama, but it is not as common as the rubythroat. The male rufus has a "rufus" or brown color on its back, sides, tail, and head. Like the rubythroat hummingbird, the male rufus hummingbird has a reddish-colored throat patch, but it is more orange than ruby.
