Naturalist's Response

The bird on your Ring video is a Great Crested Flycatcher. It is one of our migratory birds that come up from South America and Mexico to nest in the eastern US. You can find more information about it at this link.

Thanks for sending the video! Pictures really are worth a thousand words!
