As I type (5pm), there are 2 Cassin's kingbirds foraging from and perching on the raptor perches in the prairie dog town on the south side of Clement Park (SE of the lake). I was pushing the boys in the jog stroller and spotted one flycatcher. I initially assumed Says Phoebe but I quickly realized otherwise! I saw the white tipped tail, distinct white malar, darker gray head, and bright yellow flanks and belly. I walked out and got nice looks at key ID point and took some photos with my phone thru my binocs (who takes kids walking without binocs??) and we kept going. I assumed the bird moved to another perch nearby but there were two observed at the same time. I think I got a decent/identifiable photo of at least one of them. Nice bird just out for a walk! They are so close to the yard too. I hope one flies over!
