Grey Catbird ,Treeve Common ,Lands End 16/10.18.

 What a cracking bird ,this American beauty is the first for Cornwall and only the second for Britain as far as i know, anyway its bloody rare,it gets its name from its strange call that is reminiscent of a cats meow.


Although only a record flight shot all the identification features are visible including black cap and tail, rusty  undertail coverts and sooty grey body.
