A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Wilsonia pusilla
Male has a black cap, olive upper body and brilliant lemon yellow lower body. The female and juvenile do not have the black cap, but have the yellow underparts.
Along streams and in moist thickets in woodlands, although this individual was sighted in a courtyard outside a the main building of the Arizona Sonara Desert Museum near Tucson, Arizona
In some of the references I used to identify this bird, it was described as not fearing humans. This was certainly true of this little male as I photographed it.
