Grey-Blue Gnatcatcher #202

These nimble little birds flit about in the tree tops, so it is rare to see one even though they are around. This was my first time photographing one as they are very difficult to find in camera range. I was thrilled to finally photograph one of these very tiny and fast birds.

Eastern Kingbird

Kingbirds love page wire fences, they are everywhere in the country side. They quietly mind their own business until bothered, then look out if you’re a predatory bird looking to do harm.

Mockingbirds

A musical bird with a vast variety of sharp calls. It’s monochromatic colouring is made up for by it’s song, at times it is hard to believe that this small bird can be so loud!  a group of mockingbirds is known as a “ridicule”
