Gold Crowned Kinglets

I love these elusive little critters. Mostly they just don't sit still long enough for the camera to focus. But this time for once, these two were a little slower than my shutter finger!

Never seen one. Nice captures.

Thanks for commenting, Mike. These Gold Crowned Kinglets are quite common here year round, though most of the summer they stay high in the canopy. In winter it's easier to photograph them because they forage lower, mixed in with Chickadees and Ruby Crowned Kinglets.
