Fork-tailed Flycatcher - Kleberg Co., December 20, 1988. One immature (1988-298, TPRF #732) at Ricardo, Kleberg from 18-26 December 1988. Like the 1984-85 Texas record, this bird was likely the northern race (T. s. monachus) which is in contrast to most other U.S. records which apparently pertain to the South American race (T. s. savana). See Monroe and Barron (1980). A photo of this bird was published in AB 43:232.
