  1. This is an adult male ruby-crowned Kinglet (Regulus calendula). It has a few red feathers on top of its head that I was able to notice only when it flitted about in bushes.

  2. It is always a pleasure to spot a Golden-crowned Kinglet. It is even better when you can get a good photo since they are constantly on the move.

  3. Golden-crowned kinglets are everywhere in Prospect Park these days (Brooklyn, NY). They are very small and never sit still...

  4. Golden-crowned Kinglets showed up in the neighborhood this week after seemingly being gone all summer. Since my dad was an audiologist I am aware my high-frequency sensitivity has dropped somewhat in recent years - so I am always particularly pleased to still be able to pick up these near-ultrasonic calls above 8 kilohertz. Wee lisping trills up in the cedars like someone whistling through their teeth. #Birding #Kinglet #Oregon

  5. Always amazes me how these little guys can hold it together in the winter. Golden-crowned and Ruby-crowned Kinglets are in constant motion and have metabolisms in overdrive, but are almost hummingbird-class tiny. AND, they are primarily insect-eaters, although they eat seeds in the winter. It was seasonably (whatever that means) cold at Hempstead Lake State Park (NY) today, but they were zipping around.

  10. Golden-crowned Kinglet up close and personal...

    I hope y'all don't get bored of these guys! It was Kinglet city, today, at the Lido Passive Nature Area, for both Golden- and Ruby-crowned Kinglets! Many were gleaning insects on the ground after yesterday's heavy rainfall. But, the best site was a tree (I'll have to check the species), apparently drilled by a Yellow-bellied Sapsucker that was oozing sap, and attracting a variety of insects, while Kinglets jockeyed for position with each other and Yellow-rumped Warblers and even the Sapsucker made an appearance, while Phoebes zipped around close by.
