Mono Monday: Week 171 .......

F8 and be there. 

Or alternate: Serendipity.

My picture falls more into the alternate category as it wasn't shot at F8, but I was obviously there! 

I just happened to be out with my camera when I spotted this beautiful Gray Catbird.  They are our Summer time visitors and I am always so excited to see them return!  I love them so!

This catbird was quite puffed up .... I can only guess it's some sort of mating ritual!  They are normally very sleek birds.
