Hi Carol, Its a great picture! And, your description of it holding its tail up was a good field mark. Check out the Gnatcatcher page in your field guide. Jody Jody W.

[cayugabirds-l] bird ID help
Hi all, I photographed this little gray bird at Montezuma last Wednesday morning. The only little gray bird I know that has white on the edges of its tail is a Junco. This isn't a Junco. It holds its tail like a Mockingbird. Again, that's not what it is. From its beak I thought it might be a warbler. I'm sorry the pic isn't better, but even at 600mm, it was tiny. Can any of you bird experts help me? https://pbase.com/carol_keeler_photo/image/169653474 -- Cayugabirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsWELCOME http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsRULES http://www.NortheastBirding.com/CayugabirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/cayugabirds-l@cornell.edu/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/Cayugabirds 3) http://birdingonthe.net/mailinglists/CAYU.html Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
