The Vermillion Flycatcher is really something to see. Bright in color, it stands out among all the flycatcher, for sure. It spends it winters from Mexico down to South America, and many come up in the spring to southern California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas. Up here, it tends to like the warm, dry habitats -- but it will turn up in grassland and oak woodlands. During breeding season, the male Vermilion Flycatchers are known for a wild singing performance, bouncing through the sky. Check out the map below to see where they were as of the end of April (photo by Jamie Chavez):
