Thanks so much, Jak! Catbirds are usually in our area, but we never had them nest in our yard until 2 summers ago. They're a pleasure, and their songs are beautiful.

Gorgeous shots, Donna. I don't think I've ever seen a catbird.
Thanks so much, Earl. Glad you enjoyed these. The catbird (actually Grey Catbird) is in the same family with the mockingbird and brown thrasher. They all mimic other birds, etc., and the catbird mimics a cat.
