Songs

Male Black Phoebes sing a long series of repeated tee-hee tee-hoo notes to defend territories and attract mates.

Calls

Black Phoebes give tsip calls throughout the year during flight, foraging, and predator interactions. When chasing mates or intruders, they give a tweedle-deedle-eek call. During the breeding season males address females with soft, wheezy chatters.
