Vermilion flycatcher

Vermilion flycatcher, El Charco del Ingenio, San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, México

Tiny spot of crimson
Perching on a post,
Of your hearty appetite,
You're allowed to boast!

    Wow, this guy stands out vividly in his scarlet plumage, adding a dose of bold color in an often colorless desert. Hoe he gets his fill of flying pests...
