Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher

Oklahoma's state bird, the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher is also found in Texas and other neighboring states. Identified by their long, scissor-like tails, these fancy fliers are capable of mid-air somersaults and zigzag flight. Though they may sleep or migrate in large flocks, they are usually seen alone during daylight hours. They dine on flies and insects, usually caught in mid-air.
