The photo is not a Ruby-crowned Kinglet but instead its a Orange-crowned Warbler. Nice photo.

You may be correct Mike and if so I stand corrected. There's a lot of similarities bewteen them including their phyical size and also foraging habits.

Dang Hoagie,

Why don't you just shatter their hopes and dreams while you're at it?

Might as well call out their Mamas too.

Raider4ever, your post is confusing to me, are you joking around or are you disappointed that Mike H. is helping to make an accurate identification of the bird?

ShawnZ,

Ya got me, yes I am dissapointed Mike is going out of his way to do what he does better than anyone I know, ID birds. Either that or....Mike and I go back to elem. school. We played against each other in high school. We were roomates at MN-Crookston, we were best men at each other's weddings. We are both from the same 'hood and I just found out he is registered on this site so I was just giving him a shout-out by "doggin' him". The game has gone on between us since time began.

Stu, I agree with Mike on the ID, not that he needs backup from me. He is the pro on bird ID.

That final image in the first series in particular is excellent, with the live protein ready to be swallowed, and the taut pose in the image you added later is excellent. Nice light as well. gringrin

If you saw a kinglet next to an orange-crowned warbler, you'd defininitely notice a size difference, with the kinglet being smaller. I also seem to recall the r-c kinglet has an eye ring that appears more broad than the o-c warbler.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
