That would be my guess as well.
Either that or a Goshawk.
"Not used to not seeing the Crest"
Really?
I hardly ever get to see the crest.
Having that privilege I imagine that RC kinglets fancy you, over me.
The story of my life.
Kinglet, much like warblers, are frenetic and you are more likely to
capture a shot if you see where they are headed and then advance
in that direction and wait for them to visit you. Chasing after them
is futile. I should know. I decorated my whole room in primo futile.

Thanks, ... I think.
Axeman doesn't owe me any money, so he can't be my brother.
I'll dial it back a bit. I was planning to tone it down a few notches
when I die. I guess I should practice now before it's too late.
I figure someone will banish me from this forum sooner or later.

Can I expect you to keep me in line, as an essential service for
smart people?
