Blue-and-White Flycatcher


I know what you're thinking - that CAN'T be a Blue-and-White Flycatcher, right? I know, I know. The black lores yet almost complete lack of black on the breast and face point to something crazy, like a Pale Blue Flycatcher. Look closer, and you'll realize it is in fact a Blue-and-White Flycatcher, but of the rarer cumatilis subspecies. Let this be an important life lesson to all of you. Geez, life is nuts, innit? Gonna wake up super early and have a snoop round the foothills for storm-blown rarities. Yes I will.
