Vermilion Flycatcher in Western San Bernardino County, in Summer
On June 28, 1921, I found a pair of Vermilion Flycatchers (Pvrocephnlus rubinus mexicnna) at the Cushenbury Ranch at the base of the east slope of the San Bernardino Range, in San Bernardino County, California. Although I did not find a nest, I have no doubt that the birds were breeding as they were both busy about a fork high up in a cottonwood and the male was constantly indulging in his flight Song.
