This morning I was out walking a few hours on the NCR trail near Bentley Springs. There were a lot Ruby Crowned Kinglets all along the trail. At least I am prettty sure that is what they were. Here is a list of most of the birds I saw. I am inlcuding a link to pic's of the Kinglet and a what I belive is a Fox Sparrow. I would appreciate any confirmations.

Ruby Crowned Kinglet..many up and down both sides of the trail

Red Bellied Woodpeckers
