flycatcher?
« Thread Started on Oct 21, 2009, 2:17pm »
this little bird was very hard to capture with the camera, hopping around all over the place very quickly.. i'm assuming some type of flycatcher, just not sure which one.

first pic is a little fuzzy

That lively little bird is a Ruby-crowned Kinglet. Congratulations on getting great shots. They are super tough to photograph!

Hi Jeff.

Good thinking on the Flycatcher, but I also agree with butterfly that it is a Ruby-crowned Kinglet, a tough bird to get the kind of photos you did. Well Done!

Thanks for sharing,
Dave
