Eastern Kingbirds are fun to see and hear. They love to perch. Their song and calls are unique and watching them grab insects out of the air is a delight. Yesterday morning here at camp, this one sat patiently waiting for the hatch to start on the lake.

These birds, who arrived in May, will leave for South America in September. So, we’ve got a couple of months to enjoy them.

Here is our morning view from the deck.
