Default They're everywhere

Tons of hummingbird activity now that the little ones have hatched. I saw five at one time at my place the other day (I have 2 feeders about 20 feet apart). Pretty much every morning I wake up I look out the window into the maple tree above one of the feeders and there's a male, always perched on the same twig-like branch.

I was wondering if anyone knows this... Would this year's males have a visible, ruby colored patch on their throat yet?
