Its scientific name is fearsome, Tyrannus tyrannus.
I discovered this kingbird in Morton Grove's Linne Woods restored prairie on Sunday. The species prefers forest edges and its diet consists mainly of insects, supplemented by fruit. Kingbirds winter in South America--where fruit is their main staple.
