Field Notes
Description:
It specializes in eating bees and wasps, both in the summer and on its wintering grounds in Central and South America.
Habitat:
They inhabit open wooded areas, especially oaks.
Notes:
This red bird was in my balcony trying to get one of my wasps out its nest. Couldn't get a photo of the scene because if I move the bird would see me and fly away, and I only had my camera with my telephoto lens. But it was really cool to see that! Hope to get a wide photo next time.
