[cobirds] Rocky Mt Nat'l Park Golden-crowned Kinglets

I saw the largest flock of Golden-crowned Kinglets yesterday I’ve ever seen, even when living in the maritime NW.  I was hiking up to Sky Pond and I was at about 10,200’ I believe.  There were dozens of them, and impossible to get an accurate count.  But what was surprising was it didn’t appear to be a mixed flock.  I wasn’t seeing any Ruby-crowned Kinglets or Mt Chickadees with them.  Lovely sight!!
