Although we have plenty of Phoebes in the area it is rare for one to come to the backyard, so it was a treat when this one landed for a quick drink.
These tail-bobbing birds usually perch on branches and then dart down to capture insects.Β I guess this fellow got a bit thirsty.

I love how soft and fluffy he looks.Β Definitely a fine-feathered Phoebe!


So pretty!!! π
Even prettier in person!
so beautiful. I’ve never seen this one!
They rarely come to the feeders. I usually see them near the lake, dipping and diving for bugs. π
A wonderful treat! Great pics!
It was a treat indeed. π
What a cute wee bird!
Agreed! He looks so soft to me. π
Love Say’s Phoebe!!
