Re: [mou-net] Say's Phoebe - Big Stone County
Hi Andy, I just looked at the picture you posted and have concluded that this is a different bird than the one we had found a couple of days earlier near Marrietta in Lac qui Parle County, almost due south of your bird. Our bird had a darker chest and perhaps a more vibrant salmon colored belly. Interestingly, while this range in plumage is not indicated in either the Sibley or National Geographic field guides that I have, it reminds me of the pair that nested in northwestern Yellow Medicine County a few years ago.

The bird was found in the backyard of 877 Main (MN Hwy 7), this is at the intersection of Hackberry Hill Rd and Main. It's a small gray house just adjacent to the grain elevators and railroad tracks. I got some great pictures of it that I will hope to post tonight.
