    The Ruby-Crowned Kinglet is a small bird found in spruce-fir forests across the Northwest and Canada, as well as isolated trees and mountain-shrub habitats, that can be identified by males having a ruby crown visible when singing. They nest high in trees, eat spiders and insects, produce up to 12 eggs, and are notable for their ability to sing loudly despite their small size of 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches long.
