I believe I had a Black Phoebe at Pelican Point in Bear Creek Lake Park this morning. I was looking into the sun, and the bird flew before I could circle around the bird for better viewing light. The bird was on the fishing pier at Pelican Point. It flew out to fly catch and returned to the same area several times in characteristic Black Phoebe fashion, dipped it's tail, had a white belly, peaked head, and my first thought upon seeing it was "Black Phoebe'. I could not pick up any color except dark and light since I was looking into the sun, but I could distinguish the dark vest and white belly at one point. It flew south and I was not able to relocate it among all the fisherman (may have gone across the lake). I'm almost certain it was a Black Phoebe, but I was looking onto the sun and the bird didn't stay long, so.....
