So I am confident that the first two are female Golden-Crowned Kinglets.  Are the 3rd and 4th female Ruby-Crowned Kinglets? Or are they a juvenile Golden-Crowned? All were flitting around together today--mostly too rapidly to photograph!  Many thanks in advance!

Yes....1 & 2 are  Golden-Crowned Kinglets and 3rd and 4th  Ruby-Crowned Kinglets.  The sex of each is pretty hard this time of year as orange colour in Golden -crown and red in Ruby's  are not obvious this time of year, perhaps if birds were fighting and had head feathers rised you might see some colouring
