All gray with a pretty black cap...
they have the cutest call you have ever heard.
They sound just like a cat!!
In the first image, he is singing and all puffed out.
This is the same bird, relaxing and posing.
They are extremely friendly and rarely fly off,
as I am hanging out the window, snaping away!!
Theresa, I never photograph them without thinking of you!

These are especially pretty with the red leaves in the background. The light is perfect...I think your coffee table book should be called "just outside my window"

Ya I know I am feeling depressed, no crap to give you ; }
I have never heard of them...I will have to check and see if we have them here in NC.....Loving cats the way I do, I sure would love to see and hear one....
You be safe hanging out windows.....
Wonderful captures! We have catbirds here - totally fascinating aren't they?
Cat birds??? I learn something new all the time in blogland:)
i WANT one! :)
that first one - a gray pear in a tree!
I love catbirds. They have an understated beauty. Nice shots of this handsome guy.
GORGEOUS light!
I've never heard of catbirds - I love seeing this one!
The closest I've heard around here is our resident stellar jay who mimics various other sounds ... so far he has mastered red-tailed hawks, pileated woodpeckers, frogs, robins, eagles and chickens. He's even started copying our dog's whine when she wants inside.
I think the birds just trust you. Fantastic close=up from the to me unknown bird.
Have a great weekend Debbie
Great catch. We don't see these guys too often here.
How cute is that! Beautiful photos!
this is new to me - hello catbird, you are a cutey, I hope to hear you someday !

Both are spectacular shots but that second one takes my breath away. Wish we had those here!
Debbie, great shots of the Catbird. I wonder what your neighbors think of you hanging out the window? Have a wonderful weekend!
Good photos!!! I have never seen them before - it sounds like a cat? Sandie
That's the first time I have seen one. They look so gentle.
I love their sound. I wish we had some here! :)
Oooooo. it is cute, great shots!
You would never known they were the same bird. Catbirds hmm
Beautiful shots, Debbie! Both are fantastic, but I really like the second one. Your photos are wonderful!
Nice captures, Debbie! I have been trying to capture a bird that I see now and then in my back yard, but he won't sit still long enough for a clear shot. I'm still trying to figure out what he is...I love a good mystery!
Good photos!!! I am greeting
Great captures of such a beautiful little bird.
I love thinking of you hanging out the window and snapping away. Actually, I envy that you have these birds so close! Lovely pictures.
He is adorable Debbie!
Great captures!
Awesome pictures! You really should do a nature book; the pictures are so good. I am going to post my barn picture. I have been looking for a good barn to take a picture of for a long time. I love visiting yours site and enjoy your comments on my posts. Again, you need to make a book; the pictures are so good.
Blessings!
Stunning Photos...I'm amazed!
Thank you for sharing!
