Ruby-crowned Kinglet
(Corthylio calendula)
from 'Barred Life: Backyard Birdwatching Project' (2018-2022)
Whidbey Island, Washington
This tiny bird was flashing his crown, positioning himself directly in front of other kinglets. Sunlight made that patch of red feathers glow like a hot coal. It was breathtaking and made me laugh at the same time. Ruby crowned Kinglet South Coast Botanic Garden 3754
A tiny bird that overflows with energy, the Ruby-crowned Kinglet (Regulus calendula) seems to forage almost frantically through lower branches of shrubs and trees. Its habit of constantly flicking its wings is a key identification clue. Outside of hummingbirds, Kinglets are the smallest of Northern American birds. This plain green-gray bird has a white eyering and a white bar on the wing. The male’s brilliant ruby crown patch usually stays hidden. Your best chance to see it is to find an excited male singing in spring or summer. The Ruby-crowned Kinglet lays a very large clutch of eggs. There can be up to 12 in a single nest. Although the eggs themselves weigh only about a fiftieth of an ounce, an entire clutch can weigh as much as the female herself. Metabolic studies on Ruby-crowned Kinglets suggest that these tiny birds use only about 10 calories per day.

The Ruby-crowned Kinglet, one of North America's smallest songbirds, has a loud, complex song and, with up to 12 eggs, lays the largest clutch of any North American passerine for its size. Males and females are nearly identical in plumage -- olive green-gray on the upperparts with two strong white wing-bars and a broken, white eye-ring. The male has a scarlet crown patch, which is usually concealed unless agitated.
During migration and winter, the Ruby-crowned Kinglet occupies a variety of habitats and is often recognized by its constant wing-flicking. As a breeder, it inhabits spruce-fir forests of the northern and mountainous western United States and Canada. Its nest is hidden, often near the trunk and up to 30 meters above the ground, making reproductive data difficult to gather. Much remains to be learned about the breeding biology and behavior of this species.

Teeny little birds, and always on the move. Most of the time their crown is hidden. Our beautiful world, pass it on.

One immature male ruby throat and one female ruby throat hummingbird are the last two hanging out by the the flowers and feeders. This young male is showing his red feathers and by next Spring when he returns it will be all filled in. He is already aggressive in chasing off others including Cardinals and finches and bees. I shall miss them being around when he leaves in the next few days but will look forward to feeding the migrate birds from Canada and the northern states.
I put out a hanging flower pot in the back deck and today I quickly snapped these guys (one in the bottom could be a young male or female). Tomorrow I will try to take my time and ensure my exposure etc are set right, so I can avoid the grain (below) and darkness (above) ..
Thanks to my friend Janet (aka Dark Spinner) for her continous encouragements in my photography in general (also for those helpful hummingbird tips). I told you I'll have some hummingbird for you later.
A little male RCKI. Seeing a few of these wintering here. I wouldn't say they are abundant, but we can usually find a pair or two. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
Ruby Beach is the northernmost of the southern beaches in the coastal section of Olympic National Park in the U.S. state of Washington. It is located on Highway 101, in Jefferson County, 27 miles (43 km) south of the town of Forks.

On his way up to Canada and the Arctic for the summer. He is making a stop in Wisconsin to fill up on bugs. One of the tiny birds.

Not the best shot or edit but the best I could do. Tried desperately to erase that naked branch, to no avail. This beauty has been coming to the over 25 Florida native Coral Bean blossoms in the front yard, which are behind a Dwarf Powder Puff potted plant of almost the same color, and under the spring blossoms of the Weeping Bottlebrush tree of almost the same color. A veritable Hummingbird haven! Hope I have a couple more shots that are better or better to edit.

Always fun little birds to run across. I've been lucky recently in catching their crest. I also have lots of empty frames where a kinglet just was. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
