I have been trying to identify this bird for about a week now. At first I thought it was a Say's Phoebe. It is about that size and overall color but it differs in that it has a rusty cap and undertail. It also has a necklace of dark spots on its chest.
It lives in the Permian Basin all year long and may mate for life. I believe I have seen a female too but need another look to be sure.
A male and two female Bullock's Orioles were in the yard this morning. Such an electric orange!
