I heard some birds I didn't recognize up in the trees in the front yard yesterday, and the Merlin app identified them as Golden-crowned Kinglets. I grabbed my Z9 and 800mm f6.3 and tried to get a shot of them, but unfortunately, they were very high up in the tree, and eventually flew away without ever coming down lower, so all the shots I did get have then very small in the frame. These images are pretty heavy crops, but you can sure see how these little birds get their name.
