This evening I had three eastern phoebes at about 7 pm sitting on adjoining
fence pickets in my backyard in Ooltewah (Hamilton County). I had never
seen two phoebes this close to one another let alone three, After
observing for a while it became obvious that they were very young birds and
two of them were having some difficulty figuring out how to fly from one
place to another and land. I suspect they only just fledged. It was
interesting to see.
Also the annual ruby-throat feeder wars have begun in earnest,
