description

Summary

This tyrant flycatcher's common name comes from its song, which sounds like 'fee-bee'. The eastern phoebe has a white throat, dirty breast and buff underparts. Two other Sayornis (phoebe) species exist: the black phoebe and Say's phoebe. Say's phoebe has distinctly cinnamon colored underparts and the black phoebe, true to its name, has predominantly black plumage with an inverted 'V' shaped white patch on its belly.
