<description><![CDATA[The Greater Kiskadee is a summer visitor from South and Central America that hangs out in the Rio Grande Valley. It has gorgeous yellow and burnt sienna plumage. The Kiskadee is the largest flycatcher that visits the southwestern United States in the summer months. It is often not content with just catching insects and goes into its 'Kingfisher' mode, perching on a branch hanging over a pond or stream.  From this vantage point it plunges repeatedly into the water catching tadpoles, frogs and little fish.  I have carved this bird from tupelo wood.

It is a one of a kind creation.]]></description>
