I'm partial to Vermilion Flycatchers. They're confident, fun to watch and beautiful. There is "something" about red birds and wing fans!

Very nice series, however, one photo with two birds, #3, is virtually unidentifiable.

Wonderful series Lance! Covid and health issues kept me in last year. We have pair of peregrines nesting on our local headland. Many visits have not resulted in a single capture so I am in awe of these. VERY well done.
