Welcome to Wild Texas, Nichele!

That beautiful bird is a vermilion flycatcher. Aren't they gorgeous?

They are not endangered, but they are a treat to see in most of Texas -- I've only seen one once in my (suburban) backyard in San Antonio.

Here are some sites with photos and/or information about the little beauty:

* Backyard Bird Cam
* Enature: Vermilion flycatcher
* SAWS - Mitchell Lake Birds
