I came across a loose flock of twenty some Ruby-crowned Kinglets foraging (and singing) along Beech Hill Brook in the Lindsay-Parsons Preserve early this morning. Can’t swear there weren’t any Golden-crowns among them, but I didn’t spot any, or hear any either. A couple of Brown Creepers were part of the action, though. I watched one Kinglet hover in front of a row of fresh, weeping Sapsucker wells, as close as if it were sipping, though I suppose it’s possible some tiny insects were there, attracted to the same resource.
