[obol] Black Phoebes

[otis swisher]

Obolites: For those keeping track of Black Phoebes in Oregon:   Monday, November 11, on a 7 mile stretch of the Rogue River, ShadyCove to Dodge Bridge, Jackson County, Vince Zauskey and I found 6 Black Phoebes while we were on a fishing trip.  With one at the put-in and one at the take out, that left 4 birds at about 1.75 miles separating them.  Altogether, that was 1.167 miles of separation between each  bird.  This is the second such total of Black Phoebes in this stretch for us  on a single day, over the past 3 years.     2 or 3 birds is common.
