Blue-gray Gnatcatcher

Blue-gray Gnatcatcher

Today I was walking up the wooded draw in the north prairie and heard the wheezy call of a Blue-gray Gnatcatcher. Fortunately I had my bird lens so I was able to snap this picture. The eyebrow makes the bird look like it has an attitude. Kid of acts that way too.
These are tiny little birds that move very fast.
There are common at the PGT and nest here every year.
A couple years ago I photographed a Blue-gray Gnatcatcher at it’s nest. The nest is tiny cup made of lichen woven together with spider webs.
