This Cattle Tyrant was one of many that we saw this past August in Brazil. They were a lot of fun because they would generally walk right up to us, often too close to even photograph. I guess they must have been expecting us to flush insects for them to catch.

Jean got a new hummingbird feeder for Christmas and its been very popular. This little guy (male Anna's Hummingbird) was just a tyrant yesterday, defending his feeder fiercely. But what else is new in the hummingbird world. It seems we've had mostly males this winter so we see intense battles waged every day. I really wish I could capture it on video, but they move SO fast
Tyrannus tyrannus...That's the genus and species name for the Eastern Kingbird. The name means just what it sounds like. These small birds have a big attitude, especially when I comes to defending a nesting territory. Not only will they will fiercely defend again their own kind, but will take on much larger birds, like blue jays and even Red-tailed hawks. Their agility in the air makes them an adept adversary. It's hard to imagine this looking at this perfectly placid photo but watch them in the wild or play a recording of a kingbird and you will soon see what I mean. This little tyrant deserves our respect and admiration. The photo was taken on the grounds of the new #Virtua Hospital in Voorhees.

This is an isolated population of a species found in NW Ecuador that is primarily found along the Atlantic coast of Brazil.
Finally having escaped the 3am purgatory, A408 makes a return to its early afternoon arrival into Champaign with IC1005/IC1036 leading the way. With them is a string of some 600 axles, but the ICs certainly have made quite the catch of the day - four CREX GEVOs follow the deathstars, all silent. Bound for Centralia, these still unmolested Citibank-owned bongas are destined for some maintenance and patches - maybe even fresh paint, who knows? - before they’re sent back out into the world to help power CNs freight. They weren’t alone, as a northbound would show up on the outbound track with four additional ex-CREX units, all patched, behind a KCS ACe. Eight of them in town at once... a lot of power, but all quiet.
Merry Tyrantmas from Tyrant & her loved ones. ⚔️🎄

Mosquero Colilargo, Long-tailed Tyrant, Colonia colonus.
Especie # 1.966
Trilha dos Tucanos Lodge
Tapiraí
Estado de Sao Paulo
Brasil
Medium sized flycatcher with fairly widespread range in South America. Superficially resembles a Tropical Kingbird with olive-brown back, yellow belly, and grayish crown. However, Cattle Tyrant is unique for typically being found on or near the ground, where pairs or small flocks follow grazing animals. Found in open habitats including farmland and marshes.
This one was photographed in Brazil guided by Neotropic Photo Tours.
Eastern Kingbird is a member of the Tyrant family of birds. They are bold and will even go after hawks if the need to protect it's territory arises. It is probably this boldness and confidence that allows photographers to get rather close to them for photography.

Not a SHIP, obviously...
Once again it's a bit out of scale, but it is a very accurate recreation of the original miniature and a very sturdy frame. There is even a pivoting point in the waist! I'm really excited with this one!
Special thanks to Backward Matt for tips and help with POV-Ray lighting :D
The final photo from the day was taken in the grounds of our accommodation. These birds were fairly common there.
