What do Kinglets do in spring?

Kinglets are tiny insectivores that actively forage for insect and spider eggs on the undersides of foliage. They weigh less than an ounce and are among the smallest of songbirds. They often hover in front of a branch, gleaning food from its tips and undersides. Kinglets often flick their wings as they move about.
