We managed to locate Joey Kellner's Black Phoebe this morning, due to hearing it "tweet" as it moved around. It took 15-30 minutes at the location before the bird flew up, tweeting, and then spent some time flycatching near the pond that Joey described (0.2 mile north of Kingfisher Bridge over the South Platte, on the east (Douglas County) side.
Later we saw a hawk soaring over the prairie dog town on Roxborough Park road, competing with one of the model airplanes. When we got close enough, it turned into an Osprey carrying a fish. Why does the phoebe "tweet"? We would not have found it without its call. Why did the Osprey carry this fish so high in the air, so far from where it must have caught it?
