    Mr H I already have the Sibley book:p and yes the post overpowers the bird;)

    Dan, E. Phoebe was on the list of possibles, just not something I've seen much around here.

    Looks like an Eastern Phoebe to me as well, although it's been a while since I looked at Ohio birds. Nice sharp image, good bg, perfect exposure on a black & white bird. Well done. Agree about the perch.

    Cool and thanks for the ID!!! We have them here just don't usually see one sitting out in the open like that and if they are its only for a second so I've never had a very good look at one.

    Bugger - I thought it was a Eastern Stump Muncher (By the looks of the side of the perch) LOL :)

    Bird looks awesome Nonda, but do have to agree with your friend mr. H about the perch. Excellent background.
