Unique Nesting Site of Say’s Phoebe.
A friend of mine residing near the foothills west of this city reports a curious instance of the nesting of Say’s Phoebe (Sayornis saya). Sitting in an old shed he has a hawk mounted with wings spread, and on the shoulders of the bird, between the spreading wings, a pair of phoebes have built their nest and laid the usual number of white eggs.
