Forkin’ A!

What can one really say about a Fork-tailed Flycatcher being seen in the area? For the past few days, Cove Island Park in Stamford, Connecticut, has been a temporary haven for this amazing beauty, and today Rob and I (and many others) were able to watch it for almost 3 hours. I was actually lucky enough to see it fully flash its yellow crown at a Mockingbird that came too close. The bird was fly catching – we actually saw it in flight many times – and eating berries from some trees. Here are some photos of it in action (click photo for all pics).
