Black Phobee

 The Black Phoebe they may be found of creeks and ponds in the southwest.   They maybe found at or near shady streams, wall canyons, farm yards, towns or near water.  Rarely found far from water.

They feed almost only on insects.  They occasionally eat small fish.  They usually lay 4 eggs but sometime my be 3-6.  The young are fed be the parents. They leave their nest in 2-3 weeks.
They usually have 2 broods a year.
