“The sharp whistled call of the Black Phoebe is a typical sound along creeks and ponds in the southwest. The birder who explores such areas is likely to see the bird perched low over the water, slowly wagging its tail, then darting out in rapid flight to snap up an insect just above the water's surface.”

Thanks so much for commenting on my photo of the black phoebe. They are plentiful right now, and their songs are so pleasant.
