Birds of Kentucky: Golden-crowned Kinglet

I heard a few of these tiny birds in a backyard tree long before I saw them. All About Birds describes Golden-crowned Kinglets as "frenetically active," and barely larger than a hummingbird. They don't disturb leaves or branches as they move through a tree, so motion and sound are the best way to spot them. Comments | Permalink
