    From the summer of 2011....
    This Great-Crested Flycatcher was nesting in a martin gourd in my yard. They are always busy in the morning catching insects and bringing them to the baby birds. Thanks for looking and have a great day! :stew1:

    Great photo of a bird's daily life, catching bugs. Except for the bug, I think everyone is enjoying the bird.
