Russ, What do you shoot with?Sallysouth - 2-3-2011 at 10:27 PM
Ok, so whats the ID on this cute little guy?Geez, if he was in my yard I'd build him a birdhouse!Great pic Russ.Russ - 2-4-2011 at 06:42 AM
Marc, I use a Nikon D-60 with my new lens, a Nikon 70 ~300. I really like that lens. I get a much sharper auto focus than ether of my kit lenses. I
really like what I've been reading about Nikons new 7000 camera but it's way too rich for my blood.
Sally, I think Martyman asked if it was a "Phoebe". I haven't a clue what it is.
I just googled Phobe bird and I think that's it.Meany - 2-4-2011 at 07:16 AM
Great shots Russ. I see a new calling for you. Meany - 2-4-2011 at 08:18 AM
Russ. I checked the Birds of N. America book. This also could be Pyrocephalus rubinus. Vermilion Flycatcer. Hope it stays around to catch your
flys.Russ - 2-4-2011 at 08:30 AM

Russ & BigOly. Looked again at the pictuers of the Flycatcher. The bird you shot(pictuer) sure looks like a inmature female. and they do range
in the Baja? I will bring book when I come down.BigOly - 2-4-2011 at 03:22 PM
I'm not sure. No white eyebrow. Here is a photo I took yesterday of what I think is a Say's Phoebe. There are no male Vermillion flycatchers around
here now, they are easy to spot. Very hard to get close to. Skipjack Joe - 2-4-2011 at 03:40 PM
Flycatchers are, for me, one of the hardest birds to key out. The vermillion flycatcher is an obvious exception.BigOly - 2-4-2011 at 04:30 PM
Skippy, respectfully, I'm sorry but I don't understand "key out" ?Russ - 2-4-2011 at 04:38 PM
BigOly, I must confess I enhanced my shots a bit so actually your colors are closer to correct than mine are.
