Brown Crested Flycatcher

Well, the plea to the universe helped  ...  some. We had very hard monsoon rain yesterday (after the blog was posted) --- for about ten minutes. Still need more though, but thanks Seattle for sending us some. It's been a little "muggy" the last couple of days. Not unusual for monsoon days. With the humidity comes the bugs. And, with the bugs, come the flycatchers. We see the Brown Crested Flycatcher occasionally. He is found more typically in the riparian woods. And, only in Arizona and northern Mexico. But, since we have lots of mesquites, palo verdes, and creosotes he wanders our way. And, so he did today. This photo taken through my office window.
