On our way to work this morning we saw our first Scissor-tailed Flycatcher. They are a beautiful bird, about 14"long with a very long split tail, pale grey body, and underbody of a pinkish orange. What a treat and a great way to start our day! We have been feeding Hummingbirds and Goldfinches, thoroughly enjoying having them in our neighborhood and now to have sighted this beautiful bird as well. Truly, a treat.
We also have lots of Grackles, Cardinals, Vulchers, Doves, and Crows. Of course, of these I prefer the Cardinals. I am looking forward to seeing what different birds we get here in the summer and will keep you posted. If you have a bird Guide, look up the Flycatcher. Happy travels.
