Over the past week or two I’ve featured some images of Vermilion Flycatchers — an immature male and an adult female. Today, I’m posting images of a couple of adult males that I photographed recently.

This little flycatcher’s crimson plumage identifies him as an adult. As I’ve discussed, males of this species gradually molt into this plumage over their first year or so.

I always enjoy photographing these birds. The fact that they are relatively easy to find and photograph does not detract from the pleasure I experience whenever I see them.
