Jim Baird Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Did not know before that Eastern phoebe (flycatcher) would do this...apparently to a tree frog. This hung by some kind of thread from a phoebe nest. Thought they were insect eaters only. Click to Enlarge 49.04 KB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kogel Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Jim, that is the pheobe that is hanging there I think. No frogs in sight. [] Looks like it may have been a young'un that didn't make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 I agree with John,...unless of course you have frogs with talons in your neck of the woods. OT - OF!!! M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Baird Posted September 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 Haha. You might be right, but then, birds are just feathered reptiles anyway. I did not get my face that close, but the arc of the vertebrae made me think it was a frog's mouth. Makes me feel better about phoebes, which are supposed to catch bugs for us just like the frogs. Now I think this phoebe was poisoned during the rehab of this house in the course of flipping. We've had phoebes at our place, here and there, for a long time.
