Adult Description Tiny bird. Dull, olive-green on back. Whitish below. Wingbars. Black stripe through eyes, white eyebrow. Crown yellow, orange centered in male (often hidden), bordered in black.

A tiny, continuously active bird, the Golden-crowned Kinglet is most frequently found in coniferous woods. Despite being barely larger than a hummingbird, the kinglet winters northward to Canada and Alaska. (from http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Golde...)
The Moretown 3rd and 4th graders heard and then saw this bird during our Educating Children Outdoors session on 1/28/13.

Hi cingiserclass, this photo is found on other websites on the internet. Project Noah is a site to share your own photos of plants/animals. Please provide us with further information if this is in fact your photo. If you have any questions, referring to our FAQ should answer them, http://www.projectnoah.org/faq Hopefully next time you go out with the class you can get a photo of the birds you are seeing so you can share with Project Noah, we all know how frustrating it is to hear and see a bird but not be a able to snap a photo. We look forward to seeing your photos of plants and animals in the future!
