[Birdtalk] Catbird, Gray--Pineview Reservoir

[ConnieM]

Paul, Lovely pictures, as always.  I reported seeing a Townsend's Solitaire
on the Mendon Road Bridge, but it didn't look quite right.  After seeing
your photos of a gray catbird, I think that's what I saw.  The Solitaire is
more of a robin with the white eye ring.  What I saw had a dark eye and the
head seemed darker.  So, I hope someone will go out there to check it out
and hopefully verify what it is.  I've never seen one before until this and
I'm very certain --- well, reasonably so --- that it was a Gray Catbird and
not a Townsend's solitaire.   I'm heading out there after I finish up some
yard work that's been bugging me all spring.

Thanks again, Paul, for your great photos!
