Isolation Series: Catbird CanCan

"Catbird CanCan"
11x14" mixed media on paper


The Gray Catbird is a regular visitor to our garden - and yes, it can emit a mewing call. One morning, on my way to the creek a Catbird accompanied me, hopping from branch to branch. Once at the creek the Catbird settled in the overhanging branches of a buckthorn tree. As I watched this bold bird it began to hop and flick its tail up and down, flashing bright cinnamon coloured under feathers. What a dance - cheeky and saucy and oh, so fun!
