Catbird

It's been a while since I blipped a backyard bird, so with a busy schedule today, I thought I would give this a go.  Right now the trees are lush with foliage so it is hard to catch them there, but this little Catbird was busy cleaning up the suet under the feeder that had been dropped by the messy Starlings and I got my shot.  I love these elegant birds with their perky tails and funny call.  We have lots of them this year, which pleases me since last year they were pretty scarce. 

We are getting ready to go see our darling girl.  It is hard to believe she is almost 6 months old.
