Eastern Kingbird revisited...
I posted one pic from this section a few days ago. Thought I would show some of the others here. They usually do no cooperate...
I have always been lucky to get one shot...
Let alone one to sit and shake it off and scratch an itch...
and then settle back down.
I know its tail is cut off in a couple shots but I am still happy to have caught the gleam in its eyes.

Good capture. We have Western Kingbirds in Eastern Wa. The are so pretty---similar to the Eastern but with a soft yellow tummy.
Thanks for visiting my blog

Great photos, I have never seen one before!
I actually like the last picture the best. I would never be able to take pictures like that. :)
What a neat, pretty little bird. Not one we see hear.
THey are fine pictures. HE looks like he's showing off in the one.
Hari OM
it's lovely... I haven't been able to photograph ANYTHING for weeks... YAM xx
A bit of a tail cut off doesn't take away from how fantastic these are. I'm never able to zoom in far enough to get very good pictures of birds.
Pretty bird. I like the 3rd picture of the bird scratching an itch. Happy weekend.
They're here too. Or they WERE here. I haven't been out birding 'Cause of weather. Great photos...such a striking bird!
Hello,
Pretty series on the Eastern Kingbird. Enjoy your day, have a happy weekend!
Love these photos of the kingbird! It looks still and tough but hey, we all need to scratch an itch :) Happy Weekend dear Rose!
Excellent shots. Wow.
Yes, that little eye is truly captivating
Lovely little bird. I like the one with it's head upside down.
These are excellent pictures.I agree, they seldom cooperate.
Such a pretty bird and great shots Rose!
Excellent shots. I agree that these birds usually don’t wait to have their picture taken.In case my comment shows up twice, it's because i wasn’t sure the first one went through.
This is a wonderful series! He is quite the acrobat! Beautiful color and detail!
A great capture of this bird's look and actions. A fine series.
Birds never cooperate with me.
That is a super image.
I think I have seen these birds competing with the bluebirds for a spot in our water-filled rocks. You got some excellent pictures.
nice wildlife shot. that sure is a strange pose in the thurd one!
Aw!!! Such cute shots !! I love that fellow svratching and you have done a great job capturing the moment !! Voila !!!!!
Devi :)
Oh my Rose … you have got some great photographs here, lovely shots :)
All the best Jan
Amazing!💖
What a precious bird. I always love your bird photos, Rose. And that one of him bending his head is so funny. I think he was scratching himself hahaha.
