A few birds in flight from yesterday. The Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher is a rare bird to see around here. This is the second year in a row that we have had them nesting in our area (about an hour from here.) Unfortunately the skies were pretty gray.

I went out to Cat Bird Slough and I got these shots. Sadly an Bald Eagle chased down the Osprey and stole the catch.

A series in the big sis picking on the younger brother. These kids haven't been flying long so it will be another week or so before they are really active and the hunting training really gets going. Very happy that all 3 this year have successfully taken flight.
