Golden-crowned Kinglet, Regulus satrapa, at my backyard bird feeder in Gig Harbor, WA. With poses like this I wonder why the person that originally named these birds called them KINGlets. These tiny birds(about 3.5" long) don't usually come to bird feeders (they are insect eaters) but I guess with all the commotion he had to see what was happening in his relm.
