The authors present the results of a study of coronal bright points (B.P.) observed at 20 cm with the VLA on a day when the Sun was exceptionally quiet. Microwave maps of B.P. were obtained using data for the entire observing period of 5 hours, as well as for shorter periods of a few minutes. Most B.P., especially those appearing in the full-period maps appear to be associated with small bipolar structures on the photospheric magnetogram. Overlays of B.P. maps on the Ca+K picture, show that the brightest part of a B.P. tends to lie on the boundary of a supergranulation network. In general, the bright points exhibit rapid variations in intensity. There is no systematic correlation between the size of a B.P. and its intensity; the apparently slow variation of B.P. emission may have rapid fluctuations superimposed on it.
