Took a walk after meetings in a local park neat the hotel in Scottsdale last week and saw this amazing Vermilion Flycatcher out in the open. You just don't expect to see those sort of colors in nature. What a beautiful bird. Then I saw 3 or 4 kids on bikes go by and not give the bird a second thought. Oh well. When they are old, like me, they will turn into birders as well. One can only hope. Frankly, I had never heard of a Vermilion Flycatcher (one site called it a Scarlet Flycatcher, so it might go by different names) but, Wow! What a sight.
