Gray Catbird
A couple weeks ago, I had the pleasant surprise to see my first Gray Catbird back this year in my backyard.
My catbird pair has loved the woods bordering the marsh and would kindly let me see them briefly, even for a shot maybe, before disappearing yet again. I enjoyed those very quick meet-ups!
This day was no exception, but I do think he hung juuuust a little longer to say “Hi” and let me know he was back! 😉
Now if only he’d jump to another branch in the sunlight before disappearing on me….

I like how you can see a hint of his rusty rump in that last picture. 🙂
I’m always telling them, come on , show me your rump! 😁
Fantastic pictures of your visitors, Donna! Excellent eye contact!
Thank you, Indira! He was looking at me, thinking, I remember her! 😁
Wonderful! He managed a perfect pose for you. 😊
Handsome guy… such a thrill every time a new migrant makes an appearance!
Handsome little guy.
