Common Firecrest, the "Summer Gold Chicken" (Regulus ignicapilla)

Managed to see this Common Firecrest in a conifer at a graveyard near my office today. I find their name in my native language of German rather amusing, as it translates to "Summer Gold Chicken" (Sommergoldhähnchen). Always a delight being able to spot one :-)
