Say's Phoebe is a common and adaptable flycatcher of western North America, distinguished by its dusky gray and cinnamon plumage. It is often found in arid and open country.

Where to spot

Widespread in open, arid, or semi-arid habitats across western North America, from Alaska and Canada south through the western United States and into Mexico. Some populations are migratory.

How to spot

Look for its dusty gray and cinnamon coloration and upright posture on exposed perches like fences, rocks, or utility wires. Listen for its simple, mournful 'pee-eer' call.

When to spot

Active year-round in its southern range, migratory populations are best observed during spring (March-April) and fall (August-September) migration or summer on breeding grounds.
