While birding on the King Ranch this mourning we saw seven Flycatcher
species. The Black-crested Phoebe first discovered more than a week ago is
still at the same location. But the bird of the day has to be the
Brown-crested Flycatcher. Very rare this time of year. We missed the
Scissor-tailed Flycatcher seen earlier.
Eastern Phoebe - 9
*Black Phoebe* - 1
Say's Phoebe - 1
Vermillion Flycatcher - 3
*Brown-crested flycatcher* - 1
Great Kiskadee - 5
Couch's Kingbird - 2
We also had great looks at a Sprague's Pipit and American Pipit next to
each other.
