Another Sighting of our Golden-Crowned Kinglets

Early this afternoon, as the rain and clouds began to clear, we noticed an increase of bird activity in the backyard and then we saw our two golden-crowned kinglets. (I wish I had a photo of them to post on my blog, but since I don't, google "golden crowned kinglets" and look at David Norman's photos. He refers to them as fire-crests. Their crest is truly fiery. I don't want to post the URL without getting permission.) We are so fortunate to have been looking out the window at the right moment. They flitted around the spruce trees, enjoying insects, drops of moisture, and the elusive sunshine, for about 10 minutes.
