A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Polioptila melanura
Slate blue head back and wings. Light colored throat, chest and belly. The bill, legs and tail are dark. Easy to ID by sound that I descibed as a Shhhhhhht sound
Dryer areas of lower western states. They get most of the water from insects and so they can survive desert areas. This one and many more I found here were near plenty of water. Moving through scrubs.
