Field Notes

Description:

Gray-brown above with a white throat, dirty gray breast and yellowish underparts which (become whiter during the season). Lack of both an eye ring and wing bars, and an all dark bill distinguish it from other American flycatchers. It pumps its tail up and down like other phoebes.

Habitat:

Black land prairie

Notes:

Collin County Adventure Camp is a branch of the YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas and an ACA accredited facility and program. Explore the unique environment of the Black Land Prairie in our Outdoor Education program.
