Ronโs Animal Challenge hosted by our fabulous @๐ฌ๐งCharlie S Williams๐จ๐ฆ. F is for flycatcher. From its long tail to its famous "sky dance," no other Oklahoma bird is more striking and identifiable than the scissor-tailed flycatcher, (Muscivora forficata). The State Legislature adopted the scissortail as the state bird in 1951. They are agile in the air, spreading their long tails wide to make abrupt turns and stalls.
@Susan Birdโค๏ธR ๐บ๐ธ I admit I haven't seen these birds in flight. I will have to look them up and see them. I can imagine how graceful they are. This is Infact a brilliant bird. Thank you again for sharing both of your amazing birds. God bless
