There is currently no conservation effort focused on this bird. Like other avian species, as long as it has adequate habitat - grasslands, open area, and agricultural lands - there is a chance it can survive with humans.
US Migratory Bird Act: protected
US Federal List: no special status
CITES: no special status
State of Michigan List: no special status
IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: least concern
Their diet can consist largely of agricultural pests and therefore they are helpers in keeping the ecosystems around crops in better order. The long tail feathers have been used make peyote fans. Otherwise, the human utility of the bird is limited to the beauty of the bird witnessed in their skydances.

As soon as birds arrive back on their breeding grounds in the United States, breeding pairs are formed. The female primarily builds the nest but the male may help in shaping the nest with his bill and or feet. There can be four to five eggs per clutch in a nest and up to two broods are produced per season. Nests are usually built in small trees or shrubs. The eggs are incubated for 12-14 days and the hatchlings require another 14 days before they can leave the nest. (Rand, 1971; Sutton, 1977)

An extremely large (11-15 inches) flycatcher, the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher is most easily identified by its gray head and back, pale breast, dark wings, and exceptionally long “swallow-tailed” tail feathers comprising well over half of its body length. Adult birds are almost unmistakable in this species’ breeding range, although they may be confused with adult Fork-tailed Flycatchers (Tyrannus savanna), which are darker on the head and face, that occur in this species’ tropical winter range and as rare vagrants further north. Male and female Scissor-tailed Flycatchers are similar to one another in all seasons. The Scissor-tailed Flycatcher breeds in portion of the southern Great Plains stretching from Nebraska and Missouri south to Texas and northern Mexico. In winter, this species migrates south to southern Mexico, Central America, and extreme southern Florida. During migration, stray individuals occasionally appear far from this species’ breeding range, some turning up as far north as southern Canada. Scissor-tailed Flycatchers breed in a variety of open habitats, including grasslands, prairies, and fields, utilizing similar habitats in winter as in summer. In particular, these birds require sections of habitat containing isolated low trees, bushes, or fence posts suitable for perching or nesting. Like most of their relatives, Scissor-tailed Flycatchers primarily eat small flying insects. In appropriate habitat, Scissor-tailed Flycatchers are most easily seen scanning the grass or brush from a prominent perch. These birds hunt by flying out from perches to capture prey in the air, displaying their characteristic tail feathers as they do so. Scissor-tailed Flycatchers are primarily active during the day.

Der Scherenschwanz-Königstyrann (Tyrannus forficatus) ist ein Sperlingsvogel aus der Familie der Tyrannen innerhalb der Unterordnung der Schreivögel.
Der Scherenschwanz-Königstyrann hat einen extrem langen gegabelten schwarzen Schwanz. Oberseits ist der Vogel grau gefärbt; die Unterseite ist heller mit rosa Flanken. Die Jungvögel sind weniger farbenprächtig und haben einen kürzeren Schwanz.
Dieser Schreivogel brütet in offenen Buschlandschaften mit vereinzelten Bäumen im zentralen Süden der USA und im Nordosten Mexikos und überwintert im südlichen Mexiko und in Zentralamerika. Manchmal taucht der Vogel an der Küste der USA auf und selten wird er in Südkanada gesehen. Der Scherenschwanz-Königstyrann ist der Staatsvogel von Oklahoma.
Der Vogel, der aggressiv sein Brutrevier verteidigt, ernährt sich von Insekten, die er von einem Ansitz aus jagt, und gelegentlich von Beeren.
Bei der Balz führt das Männchen spektakuläre Schauflüge auf. Ein schalenförmiges Nest wird in einem Busch oder Baum, manchmal auch auf einen Telefonmast gebaut. Beide Elternvögel füttern die Jungvögel.

The scissor-tailed flycatcher (Tyrannus forficatus), also known as the Texas bird-of-paradise and swallow-tailed flycatcher, is a long-tailed insectivorous bird of the genus Tyrannus, whose members are collectively referred to as kingbirds. It is found in North and Central America.
The scissor-tailed flycatcher was formally described in 1789 by the German naturalist Johann Friedrich Gmelin in his revised and expanded edition of Carl Linnaeus's Systema Naturae. He placed it with the flycatchers in the genus Muscicapa and coined the binomial name Muscicapa forficata.[2][3] The specific epithet is from Latin forfex, forficis meaning "a pair of scissors".[4] Gmelin based his description on "Le moucherolle à queue fourchue du Mexique" (French: "the Mexican swallow-tailed flycatcher") that had been described in 1778 by the French polymath Comte de Buffon from a specimen from Mexico and illustrated with a hand-coloured engraving by François-Nicolas Martinet.[5][6] The scissor-tailed flycatcher is now one of 13 species placed in the kingbird genus Tyrannus that was introduced in 1799 by Bernard Germain de Lacépède.[7] The species is monotypic: no subspecies are recognised.[7]
Within the genus Tyrannus, the scissor-tailed flycatcher is most closely related to the western kingbird (Tyrannus verticalis).[8] In eastern Arkansas and western Tennessee, there is a hybrid breeding zone where the scissor-tailed flycatcher and the western kingbird are sympatric and possibly compete for the same niche.[9] Both these species have simultaneously expanded their breeding ranges eastward over the past 50 years.
Adult birds have pale gray heads and upper parts, light underparts, salmon-pink flanks and undertail coverts, and dark gray wings. Axillars and patch on underwing coverts are red.[10] Their extremely long, forked tails, which are black on top and white on the underside, are characteristic and unmistakable. At maturity, the male may be up to 15 in (38 cm) in length, while the female's tail is up to 30% shorter. The wingspan is 15 cm (5.9 in) and the weight is up to 43 g (1.5 oz).[11] Immature birds are duller in color and have shorter tails. A lot of these birds have been reported to be more than 40 cm (16 in).
They build a cup nest in isolated trees or shrubs, sometimes using artificial sites such as telephone poles near towns. The male performs a spectacular aerial display during courtship with his long tail forks streaming out behind him. Both parents feed the young. Like other kingbirds, they are very aggressive in defending their nest. Clutches contain three to six eggs.
In the summer, scissor-tailed flycatchers feed mainly on insects (grasshoppers, robber-flies, and dragonflies), which they may catch by waiting on a perch and then flying out to catch them in flight (hawking). For additional food in the winter they will also eat some berries.
Their breeding habitat is open shrubby country with scattered trees in the south-central states of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, western portions of Louisiana, Arkansas, and Missouri west to far eastern New Mexico and northeastern Mexico. Reported sightings record occasional stray visitors as far north as southern Canada and Upstate New York, as far east as Florida and Georgia, and in the West Indies. They migrate through Texas and eastern Mexico to their winter non-breeding range, from southern Mexico to Panama. Pre-migratory roosts and flocks flying south may contain as many as 1000 birds.[12]
The scissor-tailed flycatcher is the state bird of Oklahoma, and is displayed in flight with tail feathers spread on the reverse of the Oklahoma Commemorative Quarter.

A tesourinha-rosada (Tyrannus forficatus)[2] é uma espécie de ave de cauda longa pertencente ao gênero Tyrannus, é aparentada com a tesourinha-do-campo (Tyrannus savana), que habita a América do Sul. Recebe seu nome popular devido à sua longa cauda e por sua plumagem de cor rosa-salmão. A tesourinha-rosada é encontrada na América do Norte e Central e realiza migrações ao longo de sua distribuição.[3]
O seu antigo nome latim era Muscivora forficata. O antigo nome do gênero Muscivora deriva das palavras latinas 'voar' (musca) e 'devorar' (vorare), enquanto o nome da espécie forficata deriva da palavra latina para 'tesoura' (forfex). A tesourinha-rosada é agora considerada um membro do gênero Tyrannus, o mesmo grupo dos suiriris. Este gênero ganhou esse nome porque várias de suas espécies são extremamente agressivas em seus territórios de reprodução, onde atacam aves maiores, como gralhas, gaviões e corujas.
Os indivíduos adultos têm cabeças e partes do pescoço cinza-claras, dorso branco, flancos rosa-salmão com coberteiras e asas cinza-escuro. As axilas e manchas nas coberteiras inferiores são vermelhas.[4] Suas caudas extremamente longas e bifurcadas, pretas na parte superior e brancas na parte inferior, são características inconfundíveis. Na maturidade, o macho pode ter até 38 cm (15 in) de comprimento, enquanto a cauda da fêmea é até 30% mais curta. A envergadura mede aproximadamente 15 cm (5.9 in) e o peso é de até 43 g (1.5 oz). Aves imaturas são de cor mais opaca e possuem caudas mais curtas.[5]
Constroem um ninho em formato de xícara em árvores ou arbustos isolados, às vezes usando locais artificiais, como postes telefônicos próximos de cidades. O macho realiza uma exibição aérea espetacular, exibindo sua longa cauda. Ambos os pais alimentam os filhotes. Assim como os outros membros do gênero Tyrannus, são muito agressivos na defesa de seu ninho. As ninhadas contêm três a seis ovos.[6]
No verão, as tesourinhas-rosadas se alimentam principalmente de insetos (gafanhotos, moscas e libélulas), que podem ser capturados esperando enquanto aguardam em um poleiro e depois voando para pegá-los. Durante o inverno, algumas bagas também acabam fazendo parte de suas dietas.[7]
Sua área de reprodução é nos estados estadunidenses do Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas; porções ocidentais de Louisiana, Arkansas e Missouri; extremo leste do Novo México e nordeste do México. Avistamentos relatados registram vagantes ocasionais no extremo norte do Canadá e no extremo leste da Flórida. As tesourinhas-rosadas migram através do Texas e do leste do México para sua área de inverno não reprodutiva, que é do sul do México ao Panamá.[8] Bandos pré-migratórios podem conter até 1.000 aves.[7]
No leste do Arkansas e no oeste do Tennessee, EUA, existe uma zona híbrida entre a tesourinha-rosada e o suiriri-ocidental, que são espécies irmãs simpátricas e ecologicamente semelhantes.[9] Ambas as espécies expandiram simultaneamente suas áreas de reprodução nos últimos 50 anos.

Синонимы
Длиннохвостый королевский тиранн[1] (лат. Tyrannus forficatus) — вид певчих птиц из семейства тиранновые.
У взрослых особей голова светло-серого цвета и тёмный клюв, грудь и брюхо светлое с лососево-розовыми боками[2]. Спина и крылья тёмно-серые. Взрослые птицы имеют характерный длинный, раздвоенный хвост. У самцов он достигает 38 см в длину, у самок на 30 % короче. Размах крыльев 15 см, вес в среднем 43 грамма[3]. Молодые птицы менее красочные и имеют более короткий хвост.
Длиннохвостый королевский тиранн обитает на открытых кустарниковых местностях в юго-центральной части штатов Техас, Оклахома, Канзас, в западной части Луизианы, Арканзаса и Миссури, на северо-востоке Мексики. На зимовку птицы мигрируют стаями до 1000 особей[4]. Регион зимования охватывает территорию от юга Мексики до Панамы.
Питаются преимущественно насекомыми (кузнечики, мухи и стрекозы), поджидая добычу на насесте. Как правило, ловят насекомых в воздухе. Также в рацион птиц могут входить ягоды.
Птицы строят гнёзда в одиноко стоящих деревьях или кустарниках, либо на искусственных объектах, таких как телефонные столбы вблизи населённых пунктов. Кладка содержит от трёх до шести яиц. Выкармливанием занимаются оба родителя. Как и другие представители семейства, тиранны агрессивно защищают свои гнёзда.
