For a bit over a month I’d occasionally go outside and smoke a tiny cigar with my coffee and this little bird would come around getting quite close (sometimes within 2 feet) and check me out, sometimes chattering to me. He’d even follow me into the garage. Then it began flying straight for my face but veering quickly. I wasn’t sure if this was a territorial act but I didn’t react. Eventually it would land on me but quickly take off. Until today (I spent 2 hours today) in which it clearly felt much more comfortable.
It’s an eastern phoebe and will be heading south some time soon. I’m thinking I should build a bird nesting spot for it.
No cigars in the pics as it’s been difficult getting a good pic.

It will come get the bugs I find from my hand:

Now I drink my coffee outside.
