Grassland Bird #3

No idea on this one. Has pretty prominent wing bars though.

Nor me! What sort of behaviour?

Resin

Ah, I don't really recall. Was just sort of a quick flight to a short tree, then to this, then off.

This terrible photo was part of continuous shooting… likes to fly through the grass.

dunno if this helps. I only got two photos before it took off.

Hard to tell...its either an Eastern Wood Pewee or one of the Empidonax Flycatcher's. Was there a wooded area nearby? That's where I always hear the Pewee's.

there is some wooded area on the property, but this was in the mostly grassy area. Once in a while there are clumps of trees, there was one nearby in this photo. And to the right is a wet area with sedge.

Why not Mockingbird?

ah yah. nice long tail and all. I bet that's it, ned.

I thought about Mockingbird also but thought I would see a more brighter eye.

I'll check more pix, burd but clearly this picture was beyond the reach of my lens, so didn't capture details as much.
