I have many pictures of this kingbird, most time it is a pair of them.

They comes to the suet feeders and sets around hours at a time.

Will fly thru bird bath for water

Didn't understand what you meant until I went back and read what Goldwinger had said. Realized you meant "can't help with ID". Stupid fingers.

They are most likely Cassin's Kingbirds according to my trusty National Geographic Field Guide to the Birds of North America.

Cassin's Kingbirds should not be in Mission, TX. area. Per all books (NGFG, Peterson & others) plus web sites I look at. These have a notched tail and Cassin's KB does not.

Thanks for looking anyway
