	Bedford Audubon Society - Eastern Phoebe and Eastern Wood-Pewee
		The Eastern Phoebe, Sayornis phoebe, is a familiar species to most in our area, often found building its nest of mud and moss under the eaves of houses and other buildings, especially near water.
		The phoebe flicks its tail in a kind of “wagging” motion when perched, and does this often enough that it can often be immediately identified by this action.
		The wood-pewee’s vocalizations also tend to be uttered less frequently than the phoebe’s, so that the effect is more that of someone giving only a laconic remark now and then, where a singing phoebe sounds like it’s having a rather animated conversation with itself.
