Scissor Tailed Flycatcher

We saw a lot of scissor tailed flycatchers today. This one was on Woods Road. It was a really windy day and he was struggling balancing on the barbed wire fence.

I took several shots of him balancing and looking around. After a while, he had a bit of an itch, and after scratching, some of his peachy under-wing feathers fluffed over his wing. The peach color is very visible when they fly.
