Dapper
I think these black phoebes look rather dapper, decked out in their formal black suit and starched white shirt. OK, maybe I'm anthropomorphizing. Black phoebes are medium flycatchers. They are monogamous. During nesting season, the male will scout out several potential nest sites, then escort the female to each, who passes judgment on the different sites and finally chooses one. Then the female does all the nest building herself. Usually 2 broods per year. Gotta keep that species going.
