Eastern Kingbird resting on a branch with green leaves. The background is soft with pinks, yellows and green poking though to imitate sunlight through leaves. Eastern Kingbirds are grey black on the upperparts with light underparts. They have a long black tail with a white end and long, pointed wings. They have a red patch on their crown, seldom seen unless provoked to defend themselves, a mate or territory. Digital Art, hand painted in Photoshop CS3 on a Wacom 21UX - artist Cass Womack 2026
