Eastern Kingbird and White Blossoms

The Eastern Kingbird, is described as a bird in a business suit, with it's dark gray underparts and white tip to the tail. This elegant songbird can be quite aggressive, an actual tyrant, when protecting it's nest from predators like the hawks, crows and blue jays, hence the scientific name of Tyrannus Tyrannus. The Kingbirds were in the process of building the nest but this one took time out for a photo shoot while perched on the branch of the white blossom tree in spring.
