Regulus regulus

Regulus regulus, also known as the Goldcrest, is Europe's smallest bird and can be found flitting through Croatia's forests.

Despite its tiny size, the Goldcrest is easily recognizable by its bright yellow crown stripe and lively movements. It plays an important role in maintaining the balance of forest ecosystems by feeding on insects and spiders.

Conservation efforts in Croatia are essential to preserving the delicate habitats that support this charming species.
