More fun with my new 100-400. I'm very unsure about this one, but it looks close to what is in my Birds of Colorado book as a Western Kingbird.

Great shots Kenny. I've never seen one of these, but he has the same shape as the Eastern Kingbird, but ours have a white and grey front. :)

Yep, I'd never seen one either, just ID'd it from my book and figured there was some subtle difference depending on territory.

Thanks for looking.
