Tyrannus vociferans
Yellow, gray, black and white bird. The edges of the wing feathers are white which help differentiate the Cassin's from the Western.
Unknown tree along Lake Hodges trail
This area only has the Cassin's over winter. The Western shows up during migration periods.

I wish I saw this one fly. It was quite content resting on the branch overlooking the lake.
I've had a lot of fun watching the Western Kingbirds this year. The bee population has increased and I've noticed the birds sitting up high to swoop down and get those bees. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/710...

Good spotting.
Thank you Emma!

according to this link it does seem to be a Western Kingbird!
Would this be a Western Kingbird?
