Vermilion flycatcher (Pyrocephalus rubinus)

A gorgeous little passerine, more associated with the southwestern U.S. and Mexico...every once in a while one pops up in Florida, usually on the gulf coast - even more rarely, one will appear on the east coast, as this one did in 2018 - my first ever sighting of one.
