Take a very close look at these two images.
Do you see any thing that you may have possibly over looked
in the past about the Western Kingbird?
One of the nice things about photographing birds with an extreme telephoto
lens is, you many times get to notice things you have over look in the
past simply by just viewing the birds through a pair of binoculars.
Check out that Upper Mandible [ Arrow ]
And here all of the time I thought the bird was sticking its tongue out like
I have seen so many Hummingbirds do in my photos.
