A recording of an Eastern Phoebe, made near a creek in a typical Midwest Oak/Hickory/Sycamore forest.

This very unique, two-note call, which you may have heard before, is, in my opinion, very beautiful despite it's short duration. Despite this bird's non-colorful plumage, his song makes up for it!

Recording made on April 10th, 2013 around 6:45 in the morning about 15 feet from a small creek. My recorder, the Zoom H4N, was mounted on a tripod in the middle of the creek. I was using the H4N's built-in microphones. Volume level was 80 (on a scale of 100 being the maximum)
