Taken at creek in SE Arkansas.
I was sitting on a gravel pile next to this creek near my house and saw two of these birds fighting. One of them finally sat still long enough for me to get some pics. I need help verifying ID

I agree, the black around the face is pretty distinctive.

Thanks! I was so excited to see them!!
I had been hearing Yellow-breasted Chats all around me when these two came out of the bushes fighting over territory or mates, I suppose. Was wishing I'd had a video camera, too!
