V-fly

Vermillion Flycatcher Pyrocephalus obscurus




Little Wood-Satyr Megisto cymela


(From Sibley)

  Tagged along with G ‘n R on a last-minute first-morning twitch of an errant and spectacular visitor from Mexico/South Texas. Vermillion Flycatcher! Helluva bird, talk about full-on colour saturation. I'm told it's only the second record for Québec. It was singing and flycatching in the main swamp at Boisé Ste-Dorothée. Of course, an impressive bird like that drew an impressive crowd. The moquitoes were out. Also, new butterfly! I’m tired.
