We have several up here in Unity. 1 pair nesting in our shed.
1 nested in our carport last year.

Subject: [NHBirds] Why No Phoebes?
Ever since I’ve lived here (about 17 years), Phoebes have nested somewhere on my house, and I have heard other Phoebes calling in the neighborhood. This year, I thought I saw one, but since then, there have been no signs of Phoebes.
I suspect that hawks ate them. Sitting out in the open on a branch, the way they do, would seem to make Phoebes easy targets.
