Great set. The Cape Mays have been abundant for me so far this migration. In all their confusing fall variations.
Hi Ally, well you see, it went like this .... the catbird was yammering away, all plaintive-like and it wasreally getting on my nerves. I tried to ignore the whine of indignation, the constant protest and attention-seeking rhetoric. So I brushed-off the fence post top, gave a quick sanative treatment and offered the podiumto that insistent catbird as a soap box to make the rant official. So we all gathered round, mostly just a squirrel,a chipmunk and another catbird and lent our ears. It just stood there ... tongue-tied. Not a peep. We were notimpressed, but I took a picture just to remember the occasion. Catbirds will cat-call you from deep within the bushesbut when confronted, face-to-face, they're just cowards.I'm surprised that I remember any of this. Usually after I take my meds the memories just vapourize.
