The Eastern Phoebe is the original tail-wagger of the bird world, constantly bobbing its tail like it’s got a secret dance move. Dressed in soft gray and buff tones, this early spring visitor loves to show up before most birds, announcing itself with a cheerful “phoebe” call. Always on the hunt, it darts from low perches to snatch insects mid-air, proving you don’t need flashy colors to be a boss in the bug-catching game!
