May 11, 2010 01:49 | #1 Flycatchers are one of my favorite species of birds and I always look forward to their return in the spring. Over the past couple weeks they're getting more and more numerous. Here are some shots taken of several different Flycatchers taken from the past couple weeks. Both Kingbirds are heavy crops. Thanks for looking. Brad
