I was looking at swallows and swifts, but the adults had a funny shaped head which never quite matched up to my bird books, nor did the tail feathers. Our pictures are identical!

Here's what she said:<br /><br /><i>They're phoebes! I love them—they're little flycatchers, eat bugs on the wing, very beneficial to all. When they're adults they're brown with white chests, and they bob their tails up and down all the time. They're incredibly cute and jaunty. I wait for ours to return every year, and they are always on time. I don't know how they do it.</i><br /><br />You can see ours here:<br /><br />http://www.farmgirlfare.com/2010/04/book-review-flyaway-how-wild-bird.html<br /><br />and here:<br /><br />http://www.farmgirlfare.com/2011/07/sunday-dose-of-cute-baby-bird-and-whole.htmlFarmgirl Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04851855517852917202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5219078614147060370.post-11182569958859116032013-06-13T11:52:23.185-04:002013-06-13T11:52:23.185-04:00That first picture is too adorable!That first picture is too adorable!Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18208470945877004870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5219078614147060370.post-66899093859545069292013-06-11T09:05:10.997-04:002013-06-11T09:05:10.997-04:00Your photos are fantastic!
