As a follow up to recent Bushtit posts, our flock made its usual hit and run 
commando raid on our suet feeder this morning.  There were about a dozen (ever 
try to count those guys? It's the avian equivalent of Whack-A-Mole).  I thought 
I saw one that looked a bit different, and upon further inspection it proved to 
be a Blue-gray Gnatcatcher.  When the Bushtits fled the yard (they don't fly 
off, they flee), the gnatcatcher went with them.  I guess the bird felt right 
at home in that crowd.  I would never have noticed had I not picked up a 
glimpse of the eye-ring on the gnatcatcher.
