        Yes a horrible shot…detail, clarity, foreground clutter to distract the autofocus. Perseverance to get the shot

        Great colours on the Mohawk. Looks territorial like my dog. He’s puffed up too.

        Is it a breeding ritual.

          IIRC this little guy was preening himself. Probably in search of a mate. There were quite a few of them, but now all we have are ruby-crowned kinglets, still adorable, but that golden-crown is best.

            I haven’t seen any in a couple of weeks. They came in after the grackles (GrrAckKkLE)

            Migration is starting now. All the cute ones are coming …plus the fodder.
