On our first visit to AZ about five years ago, I got only very poor shots of both of these species. This time I did better, I think.

Thank you very much for your kind comments. The vermillion flycatcher flew into a tree not more than 20' away from me and the light was perfect; they sure are a gorgeous bird.

Great shots Al and congrats. Flycatchers can be very difficult to get good shots.
