Ruby-crowned kinglet

Regulus_calendula

Description:

The ruby-crowned kinglet is known for its habit of flicking its wings as it forages for food; this helps it scare up insects. Though they don’t look as adept as hummingbirds, they also sometimes hover to get at insects on the underside of leaves or branches.

Habitat:

Mason Farm Biological Reserve
