incredibly like a cat's meow.

The gray catbird is native to the American continent, and I live in Central Europe, so I will probably not see this bird in the nature. According to the Wikipedia, "They are extremely rare vagrants to western Europe", so I have a very small chance to see them in the nature. But it is good to see them on photos. I love birds. I even have one. A Harris's hawk, which is also native to the American content. Thank you for sharing your photos (and some information) about the gray catbird!

i grew up in massachusetts and there we often had catbirds nesting in the garden by the pond. they were very persistent in calling for my sister SHER-RY. That was years ago but we all remember it with a smile, especially SHER-RY.

Sher-ry./Der-ick Yep.

How funny, I was just thinking about catbirds earlier today, and how we don't have them here in California. I hope to see one someday, along with a great many other east coast birds.

Also, I love the scruffy look of immature birds. Definitely remind me of teenagers rolling out of bed haha. Thanks for sharing this cutie :)

Thanks! Haha.. exactly like a teenager...
