Thanks Bob!
They spend the summer in my area. I enjoy watching them catch insects and strongly defend their nests by chasing off any birds that come near. I found out recently why they are called Kingbirds when I saw one’s brightly colored crown appear when it was chasing off a rival bird.

Nice shot! I haven’t seen a Kingbird for quite a while.
Thanks Bob!
