I was photographing Gadwalls this morning when I heard an unfamiliar call,
repeated incessantly as the bird flew toward me. It landed in a nearby
willow but I couldn't quite get a good view of until just before it flew. I
saw that it was a Black Phoebe. I got some pictures after it landed again
but they are pretty poor. It was a nervous bird, never staying in one place
for long and, soon, it disappeared somewhere behind the Nutriam facility.
