While walking Callie Lou, I heard the first phoebe of the season. Many people confuse this dull olivey-grey bird's call with the black-capped chickadee who also gives a "fee-bee" call. The phoebe's is a much more raspy call, with a descending ending. Despite its dull color and non-musical call, this little bird is a tremendous bug-eater. So welcome back, phoebes!
