Great Crested Flycatcher
I originally posted this flycatcher a couple of weeks ago saying that it was unusual to see one on the road. This is what he was doing......getting nest material. The interesting aspect is that his mate was guarding him from a tree across the road. Each time he came to the road she preceded him and landed in trees on the other side of the road where she could observe him. Each time he returned to the nest tree, she went first and led him. It happened about 10 times while I watched from a car blind.
