I love catbirds! Awesome…………….
This was the first time I had seen them and they are stunning. How about the calls they make!!

i know, their calls are just amazing! I havent heard the Spotted but I assume its just like the Green which we get down this way. This is def a species for my wish list!!
We are mirrored ‘cos I haven’t seen or heard the green one yet!!
