Gray Catbirds Vacationing in Florida for Winter!
Gray Catbirds Vacationing in Florida for Winter!
About a dozen more Gray Catbirds arrived on January 1st and are just having a ball in the birdbaths! Fun, gregarious and water-loving they have joined their few resident cousins and like any visitor to a Florida relatives house in winter the first thing they have to do is jump in the pool! They never stray far from the dense brush right behind the Backyard where they can disappear into the scenery and only be known by their cat-like meowing call. Guest appearances by the usual suspects. Watch for a rare appearance by a Mockingbird and Brown Thrasher with the catbirds making up all of the bird family Mimidae, the "Mimics" known for their singing prowess. Also watch for a Painted Bunting and bathing Catbird in the same frame as a Blue Jay eating at the window feeder. Enjoy!
