Description
Photograph of a tiny golden-crowned kinglet dangling from the flowers of an oceanspray bush, nibbling on the delicate pink blossoms. The overall coloring of this nature photograph is pastel pink and green. Every year the kinglets migrate through our area on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia, Canada, but you have to be fast if you want to take their picture!

Oh yay, thanks very much, Ellen! I didn't think my little bird would be noticed in the contest but this photograph is one of my favourites so I thought I'd enter it anyway. Thanks for hosting the contest.

Thanks so much, Connie! This is actually one of my favorites (of my own photographs). I was happy to get him in focus...they're such flitty birds!

What a delicate and lovely photo! The muted background colors are beautiful, and so is the yellow on the Kinglet.
