The Ruby-crowned Kinglet has a lengthy and fascinating song for such a tiny songbird.

This little grey bird starts off with soft high notes, then break into a musical twittering, and concludes with a loud series of phrases.

It’s an enchanting song, and a loud one for such a tiny bird. 

The Ruby-crowned Kinglet breeds throughout most of Canada and much of the interior western United States.

For this species in focus episode I’ll be sharing my recordings of the Ruby-crowned Kinglet from the Barrier Lake Forestry Trails, and the Sibbald Flats.
