A gorgeous after hatch year male golden crowned kinglet. So cute and super tiny!
If you have had the pleasure of meeting Michelle, you probably already know that she absolutely ADORES nuthatches. Here she is kissing her favorite bird, a male after hatch year white breasted nuthatch. *sigh* Love at first sight...haha
She's not the only one swooning. Northern flickers wear their hearts on their undertail coverts. Reminds me of carebears.
