Ruby Crowned Kinglets are beautitful little birds. You almost have to photograph them to see them. They are maybe 4 inches long (including their tail). They are insect eaters and are always busy. They rarely stop long enough to get photographed, but when they do... and when they are ..... you will agree that they truly are little pixies.

They look like a little ball with a beak Garrett. I can see why they would be hard to spot. Excellent shot of the elusive pixie.

You must be one of those "birders" to know all these species. Pretty little thing.

A fine capture of this little beauty Garrett. I'd bet he would be hard to spot hidden in those leaves. Excellent work.

The leaves are longer than the kinglet Garrett. What great cover this one has found and how cleaver of You to have found the little Pixie.

They are aptly named. So small, next to the leaves give a fantastic comparison. Excellent timing, composition and details. Thank you for sharing it.
