Howdy students, we are winding our way across Texas and will be heading north and west to New Mexico in the next couple days. We can't leave Texas without sharing this wonderfully gregarious bird. He is a tropical flycatcher that is found throughout the Rio Grande Valley and if he is present, you will know it. And they are usually present as they are pretty common. The video is a bit long but I just wanted to share his antics. At least one clip has him saying his name his name.
Although he is classified as a flycatcher, I have seen them eating berries, lizards, and diving for fish in the water like a kingfisher. I even saw a picture of one with a snake in his mouth. So have fun with this guy and Happy birding.

We wrote letters this week to Kimdel about what has been their favorite bird of the week so far. There was a big variety of choices!
