The smallest of them all but considered king among birds in many European folklore. The Goldcrest is 8.5–9.5 cm in length, and a weight of 4.5–7.0 gm.
These ones were in Slovenia but I hear them call in the park and winter may bring some lucky photographs 😊

One of Europe's smallest. The teeny-tiny-pop-of-a-bird. The Common Firecrest.
9 cms long 4–7 grams in weight. Unstoppable in speed. Singing and flashing colour & Me swinging around like crazy trying to get some decent photographs!

A normally ultra-shy female Masked Trogan came to feed and gave us quite a show. Such that even local bird experts were clicking away!

A tale of when summer and winter collided in the garden.
Summer #flowers still blooming with abundance, had an encounter with #frost. The magic of #seasons, #nature, #colour and #light played out. Then was over in just a few moments.

#Wikipedia says, 'Collective nouns for a group of ravens include a "conspiracy", a "treachery", a "rave" and an "unkindness"; most people generally use the more generic "flock".'
An 'unkindness' is really most unkind to these interesting birds.
