Description
This was sighted today Feb 12th,2023 in Irvine-California USA ( Early Spring )
An assertive bird of dry open country, the gray and lemon-yellow Cassin’s Kingbird hunts flying insects from high perches. The bird’s scientific name translates to “vociferous tyrant,” and it fits this loud, aggressive songbird well. Males may attack large hawks that pass too close to the nest or battle rival kingbirds that enter the nesting territory. Cassin’s Kingbird resembles the widespread Western Kingbird
