Eastern Phoebe (Sayornis phoebe)
This species was spotted amongst the understory flying at about average head height.
They have a thin medium beak for feeding on insects. The feather on top of their head may appear flat at times but they can raise them into a rounder peak like shape.
Both the male and the females are brownish gray color on top and have lighter coloration underneath.
Its call is where the Phoebe gets its name, if you use your imagination it almost sounds like they're saying fee-bee.
