Tyrant-flycatcher

This little flycatcher stopped just long enough for us to capture a few pictures. The pristine black and white reminds us of a bird in a tuxedo. The Black Phoebe is a dapper flycatcher of the western U.S. with a sooty black body and crisp white belly. They sit in the open on low perches to scan for insects, often keeping up a running series of shrill chirps.
