in my island this type of moth is called ''kantilasvestis'' and in local tradition it is said that whenever one of them flies in your home you should be expecting visitors

The most distinctive behavior attributed to the Eastern Phoebe is the 'tail-wag,' in which the bird sweeps its tail widely up and down and then side to side when alighted on a perch. One of the most important factors in the spread of the phoebe into the U.S. is its growing habit of building nests on human structures or under bridges, giving it the nickname 'bridge pewee.' Its migrations follow the insect emergence northward in spring and frost-induced insect decline southward in fall.

The Eastern Phoebe is predominantly insectivorous, consuming mostly flying insects such as wasps, ants, flies and wild bees. Invertebrates such as grasshoppers, airborn spiders, hairworms from the water and even small fishes from shallow water round out their diet. It has been observed that it can survive on fruit when insects are unavailable. Flycatching is its main means of obtaining food, usually done from a perch less than 10 meters off the ground. It also occasionally chases flying insects to the ground, pounces on insects on the ground, and picks insects from trees while hovering. Its most active foraging period occurs in the morning.

 

I found this one perched on a Loquat Tree limb in my backyard.

The beautiful female Ormyrid parasitoid wasp on release back into the wilds of the garden (close up pictures in previous post). She preened for a while and got herself warmed in the sunshine before heading off to freedom.

All taken at West Dean Gardens near Chichester on a rare sunny morning without rain.
