Tropical Kingbird (Tyrannus melancholicus)
I saw this bird somewhere. it wasn't in my backyard. I think it was in Costa Maya.
"Tropical Kingbirds sometimes nest close to members of the blackbird family (Icteridae), such as orioles, caciques, and oropendolas, which nest in colonies. In turn, these tropical blackbirds often nest near large wasp nests, which deter predators, and the birds join together to chase away nest parasites such as cowbirds. The kingbirds benefit from having such vigilant neighbors." - allaboutbirds.org
