Favorite Bird: "Insect eater, people-friendly, tough, double clutcher, I’m definitely coming back in the next life as an Eastern Phoebe. We sometimes see this handsome flycatcher during our Christmas Bird Count here in northwest Connecticut perched over whatever open water is available looking for a snack."
