| As April opens its world of promise and the sap rises in the tree, perhaps a phoebe, one of a returning phalanx, will stop to pause there. |
| A pair of bluebirds and a phoebe dallied across the street, and a hummingbird zipped across the western sky. |
| A phoebe and a scissor-tail worked the fence, and Barn Swallows perched along the wires or flew overhead. |
| The phoebe seemed our sole wild bird for the day but on the way back to the car, we chanced upon some yellow-bellied beauty of a warbler. |
| I saw a couple of snipe fly over, and a phoebe or two hung around the edge of the cattails. |
| I'm thinking a phoebe, purple martin, starling fluttering up, a kingbird, I have no idea what's on the lowest wire, a nuthatch and a robin. |
