With the verdin, we move from blue to yellow, and from Africa to the southwest United States and Mexico. This small bird is a species of penduline tit and is only about 4.5 inches long when fully grown. It is second only to the 4.3-inch American bushtit as the smallest of the passerines on the continent. The verdin can be spotted foraging insects among desert scrub plants or snagging a little dried sugar from hummingbird feeders every once in a while.
