Rødtoppet Fuglekonge (Firecrest, Regulus ignicapilla)

Only two* species of Regulus on continental Europe - this species is usually caught in "good" numbers at Gedser - as they only place in Denmark with good numbers!
How the year 2012 will be is yet not to be discovered - do hope you will be able to see this magnificent bird in the hand.
It is a Firecrest.
