Great pic! I don't know birding but I really like this community and all the birds :). This bird also looks a lot like this one: Ruby-crowned Kinglet
@streetfestival @imcan8dn
they do look a lot alike but the lack of the black bar beneath the white wingbar makes this bird a Hutton's Vireo
there's a good comparison pair of photos at this link

Thanks! Neat website! This vireo's quite plump ;P
