I was real lucky to capture this Juvenile Male Flycatcher. The Dominant males are white ( like the one previously posted )  but the Juveniles and females are Rufous.. I am always fascinated by the tail of these birds.

This is so cooool!!! Just to capture the moment and keep it in frame and focused is a great accomplishment!

The long tail is beautiful and fascinating. And I love the rufous color. Maybe just a little more room for the bird at the top if you have it. :)

Thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, I didn't have more room on the top. This was the last frame in the sequence that was in focus. 
These birds are fast and predicting their move/which direction is difficult... Next time..
