There Is Just Something About Scissor-tails

I love scissor-tails. Love the delicate apricot color under their wings and the cool split tails. I like the sounds they make and the way they swoop in the air catching flying insects. This one is a male with that extra long tail. Perched near a blackland prairie that provides abundant food choices.
