Today's #BirdOfTheDay prompt is #GreyDay, so here is a #GreyCatbird, sitting on a branch and either meowing or singing one of the most beautiful songs you've ever heard. It's impossible to tell.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay prompt is #ShoutItOut, and the alternate prompt is #NestBuilders. This #GreyCatbird has a lot to say about this #CedarWaxwing and its decision to steal aaaall the dogwood fluff.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay prompt is #BirdButts, and if there's a bird that has a magnificent butt, it's the #GreyCatbird. Admittedly, it's a bit in shadow here, but you can catch a glimpse of its hidden glory.

Gray Catbirds are famous for their calls that sound like a complaining cat. Sometimes the disappointment is too deep for words.

It just found out it’s only Tuesday, and it's processing the news with a wide-eyed stare. I feel you, buddy.

A gray catbird on a stick overlooking a stream. The stick is diagonal across the photo from the lower right and curving off at the upper left, The bird is centered on the stick facing right with its slight turned a little bit toward the camera. There's another small branch behind it and a stream under all of that. The bird i gray, a little bit darker on the tail and head. It is black on the top of its head and has a white eye ring on a black eye. What little can be seen of the breast looks white also. It has a short black beak.

3 eastern grey squirrels. Two emerge from a hollow in a tree trunk while another black one grooms on a nearby branch. These baby squirrels seemed to have been seeing the world for maybe the first time from the way they chewed and stumbled their way around nervous and incredibly curious.

A female mallard duck came up on the shore next to me while I was photographing a frog. Hiding from a roving drake.

Gray catbird (Dumetella carolinensis)

The Gray catbird, also spelled Grey catbird, is a small, plump bird with a distinctive gray plumage, a black cap, and a rusty undertail. They are often found skulking in dense undergrowth, making them difficult to spot. Their behavior is characterized by their elusive nature and their ability to mimic a variety of sounds, including the mews of a cat and the calls of other birds. They are known for their playful antics, often flicking their tails and ruffling their feathers.

Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)

Distribution: Most of temperate North America east of the Rocky Mountains. During winter they migrate to the southeastern United States, Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean.

Class: Aves (Birds)
Order: Passeriformes (Passerines) Perching birds
Family: Mimidae (Mimids) Thrashers, Mockingbirds, Tremblers, New World catbirds
Genus: Dumetella
Species: D. carolinensis
